Fortune 100 Best Companies To Work For Europe 2024
U.S. business Bristol Myers Squibb was founded in the early 1800s and aims to combine the reach and resources of a global pharma company with the entrepreneurial spirit and agility of a biotech firm. European sites in Germany, Ireland, Switzerland, Belgium, France and the U.K. host employees. Global flexibility guidelines aim to optimize working patterns for each individual around their role, family responsibilities, health needs and personal preferences. A sense of purpose runs through the company, from influencing EU policies to philanthropy; an employee giving program, administered by the BMS Foundation, doubles staff's financial contributions to eligible charitable organizations. In 2022 the organization donated £2 million to NHS cancer services, charities and patient groups.
