Amgen Employer Reviews

I would recommend this company to someone just graduating from college and looking to gain experience in a fortune 500 company. If one started later in their career, this would be a stifling place. My experience overall was positive. The negatives are lack of advancement opportunities, long hours expected, and generally poor morale amongst collegues.

Busy most of the time. Great co-workers, great place to work. Enjoyed working for many years until laid off.

You will find that I am a team player, reliable and dependable. I am motivated and hard worker. I interact with both customers and coworkers respectfully and appropriately - providing attention to detail as well amgen did.

Great teamwork atmosphere (day shift) and management support. Not overwhelmingly physically demanding but tedious at times. Great compensation and benefits package. Opportunities for advancements are available.

Work day: review meeting schedule; organize meeting materials; schedule meetings, make/return phone calls; write and review drawing and documents
Learned: software validation; FDA requirements; construction; organizational mangement; change control
Co-workers: energetic and motivated colleagues; friendly and fun environments
Hardest part: getting projects – more... approved and/or complete (bureaucracy)
Enjoyable: work environment; schedule flexibility – less

So far, in my current position, I have assisted in preparation and have taken responsibility of routine submissions filed to various Regulatory Authorities such as MAA's (GEM), Variations, Clinical Trial Applications (Europe), Clinical Trial Amendments/Notifications.

Enough flexibility on work/life balance.

GMP regulated and follows Standard Operation Procedures all the time.

Lively workplace with lots of co worker interaction. Frequent staff events and activities. Great benefits.

Working at Amgen was a great experience to familiarize myself with the pharmaceutical environment. However, my work area was more directly related to various other aspects of the company. For instance, the lightening remodeling plans for their lobby building, room labeling for a controlled environment, etc. It was a relatively simple job, but careful – more... attention to details was needed. My manager was very supporting and a great role model to follow. The most enjoyable part of my job was the feeling of achievement after handing in a final report. – less

There was no typical day. One day could be spent collecting samples (water, air, surface, etc...). This would be followed by testing the samples for TOC, Conductivity, Microbiology and endotoxin.
