Avis sur Takeda Pharmaceuticals

Avantages

I joined Takeda Canada over 3 months ago and it was one of the best decisions that i've made in my career. Unlike the bigger pharma companies, Takeda Canada is very much like a start-up - learning as they grow. The employees have an opportunity to make a difference should they chose to. Having worked at several multinationals, there's no other company that I've worked for, where I was empowered and so supported to have an impact in such a short period of time. I can say that the majority of the people that I work with truly cares, are smart, inclusive, and collaborative. And yes, the company like any start-up isn't where it needs to be now , but there is a strong commitment at the global/region level on all of the right things which is very encouraging. How exciting and rewarding it is to be part of that journey to shape this!!

Conseils à la direction

The company is transforming in the right direction both for the business and for its culture. The successes will take time and it will encouraging to see management continue to support that - thinking long-term and remembering that it takes time to build a strong foundation and to accept that there will be hiccups along the way.

Avantages

There are some good people scattered throughout

Conseils à la direction

Sell off assets to another company and collect royalties until the entire management team is fired and re staffed.

Avantages

There are many pros about the organization which include the people, the location, the total compensation and the products.

Conseils à la direction

The global management of the organization needs to pay attention to the corporate culture survey which clearly tell a story. Further, the organization as a whole needs to do a much better job of vetting candidates for this important role. There needs to be swift action taken. The perception throughout is that the values of the organization are not being lived and no one is doing anything about it. Please reignite the passion within the organization; stop the turnover and return the organization to what it should be - one that is living Takeda's values. With this, you will be able to recruit and retain top talent.

Avantages

- the two newly launched products are impressive
- good benefits and perks

Conseils à la direction

If profitability target set by global is the main concern, reassess the grandiose vision being pushed from Canadian leadership. Canada does not have the capacity to support this, irrespective of headcount reductions in primary care.

Avantages

Colleagues, salary & benefits, products. Takeda has a good portfolio of products and the recent acquisition of Ariad will help.

Conseils à la direction

Improve screening for Country General Management. It's an important position. Has to be someone who lives Takeda values and respects employees. High integrity and respect for others needs to be a mandatory requirement for all employees including GMs. No one should be allowed to compromise that. Stop employee churn. Improve organic development and employee retention.

Avantages

Piror to mid 2015, Takeda Canada (and previously Nycomed / Altana) was a very successful company with an excellent culture and strong, consistent, respectful leadership. Good products. Some very good people.

Conseils à la direction

Upper management has turned a blind eye and deaf ear to this disaster. Time to step in and take the pulse of employees. Likely too late for most. Damage is done.

Avantages

Big Pharma Perks
Noble endeavours, working to help improve the lives of patients

Conseils à la direction

Listen to you staff

Avantages

Some really great people. Specialty products are of high quality. Some very good benefits.

Conseils à la direction

CEO needs to Start practicing what you preach and treating people with respect. It is time to speak honestly and frankly about past inconsistencies in communication. Leaders lead from the front.

Avantages

Great people who want to excel at their job while learning new skills.

Conseils à la direction

Executive coach for new GM. The management team needs to put differences aside to help patients more.

Avantages

The people are the main reason that people stay at Takeda...however that is changing as really exceptional talent is leaving faster than they can hire. Positions are open for months on end.....nobody appears good enough for the new leadership...who is way out of his depth.

Conseils à la direction

Take a good look at what is going on in Canada - seek out information from those still there.....
