At Amgen, we believe in rewarding our staff members for their individual performance and contribution.  One way that we do this is by providing a Total Rewards package that ranks among the best in our industry.  Each year we check the competitiveness of our Total Rewards package against other top-tier biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies.

The incentive and performance programmes we offer are available to all our permanent staff members, regardless of position or location. This means that if you worked with Amgen you would have the opportunity to influence your own wealth creation and earn superior rewards over and above monthly salary and that directly correlated to Amgen’s overall success.

Incentive Programmes

These include the International Performance Incentive Programme (IPIP), Global Management Incentive Programme (GMIP) and the Sales Incentive Programmed (SIP) which recognise short-term performance and provides income in addition to monthly salary.

Stock-based Programmes

For eligible regular staff members, these programmes allow for the accumulation of valuable rewards linked directly to the company’s performance and share price growth. This means that such rewards received from Amgen will largely depend on the value you add to the company’s development.

Retirement Plans

Pension is often not fully recognised as a benefit but, over time, it can be one of the most significant components of the Total Rewards package, providing you with a substantial income on retirement.

Your Development

We will provide you with the training and support that you need to reach your full potential, and give you higher incentive targets allowing you to earn even higher rewards in the future. We are committed to fostering a high-performing, motivated, diverse workplace, grounded on our values.

Recognition

Amgen has a global on-line employee recognition programme in place that allows staff and managers to nominate people for awards relating to making a difference and living the Amgen values.

Flexible Working 

In order to help our staff balance demanding work and full personal lives, Amgen offers flexible working arrangements subject to eligibility criteria.

Each organisation within Amgen has a structured engagement plan with a purpose of contributing to ensuring staff commitment and motivation.  Part of the engagement plan includes a Staff Consultation Forum, a Sports and Social Club and a Communication Plan.
