Bristol Myers Squibb earns coveted spot on this year's UK’s Best Workplaces in BioPharma list

18/09/24     

We are delighted to announce that Bristol Myers Squibb UK has been recognised with yet another Great Place To Work® accolade, this time as one of the leading biopharmaceutical companies in the UK.

Our place on this new for 2024 list is driven by an employee engagement survey, measuring the extent to which everyone across BMS UK feels about the culture we've developed collectively.

The survey asked colleagues at our sites in Chester, Moreton, Uxbridge, and in the Field to comment on how our company supports their work-life balance, sense of fulfilment, job satisfaction, psychological safety, and financial security. The Great Place To Work® evaluations also included an assessment of how well our organisation delivers a consistent employee experience across all departments and seniority levels.

Highlights from our Great Place to Work® survey include:

Best Workplaced in BioPharma
  • 91% of our colleagues say they feel a sense of pride when they look at what they’ve accomplished.
  • 96% say our facilities contribute to a good working environment.
  • 91% say people care about each other at BMS.
  • 95% say that are proud to tell others they work at BMS.

This latest accolade is something we are immensely proud of and is recognition of our deep commitment to cultivating a culture that promotes growth, collaboration, and wellbeing.

We ensure this by:

  • Offering an energising and engaging workplace experience where every colleague is inspired, motivated, and empowered to help transform lives around the globe.
  • Prioritising inclusion and diversity at the heart of what we do so all colleagues are enabled to reach their full potential from both a career development and personal wellbeing perspective.
  • Being driven by five employee-led People and Business Resource Groups (PBRGs) in the UK who use their unique skills and perspectives to support our company, communities, and patients.

And here’s what our colleagues had to say:

“We uphold the highest standards of integrity and compliance. In addition, as employees, we are proud to work for a company that does good for patients/humanity.”

“I feel proud to work here and contribute to help patients prevail in a fast-paced environment with forward thinking leaders.”

 

“I can bring my authentic self to work. There are so many supporting groups that make me feel you are not alone. We have People and Business Resources Groups, Mental Health Ambassadors, Menopause Advocates... I cannot think of something similar in other companies!”

“I find BMS goes above and beyond to help its employees, not only professionally but also to help employees in their personal circumstances as well with the number of diverse initiatives it does.”

“Without a doubt, the company culture is the element I enjoy the most. The culture is intentional and inclusive, and great strides are being achieved towards making it as equitable as possible for all.”
