The Top Ten
AbbVie
+1 spotEmployees say:"The global company culture is fantastic. I truly feel AbbVie cares about their employees and has many programs and initiatives to support all employees.

I also love the fact that we have a very diverse team, both in backgrounds and training. It makes for a fantastic place to work, where we continue to learn about others."
Merck

Vertex Pharmaceuticals
Employees say:"This organization is like none other. Patients are at the center of EVERYTHING we do. Secondly, the care and compassion we have for each other, both personal and professional is unprecedented in the industry. The executive team and management is always seeking ideas and ways to innovate process to better serve the patients and the team."
Alnylam Pharmaceuticals
Employees say:"One of the things that makes Alnylam a great place to work is a clear and shared common mission that allows us to ensure we're all rowing in the same direction. Culture is another key factor - Alnylam has a strong focus on nurturing, evolving, and developing company culture as we've grown, with an emphasis in the hiring process of 'culture add' not 'culture fit.'"
United Therapeutics
Employees say:"This company is a truly unique place to work - it all starts with the mission and the people. We are working to extend the lifespan of all humans - how amazing is that? When you don't want to get out of bed in the morning, that is the reason to do it. I work with the most brilliant people and everyone respects each other's ideas and wants the best for the company as a whole. It is inspiring and meaningful work, I am challenged daily, and love the work that I do."
