Working at Amgen

At Amgen, our people are united by a shared purpose: to serve patients. Across our global community, colleagues bring curiosity and talent to meaningful work. This video shares what makes our culture distinctive: the opportunity to grow, collaborate and pursue new ideas that can make a difference.

We create an inspiring work environment that empowers our talent to thrive.

There's always an opportunity.

There's always the next thing that I can push towards.

We are guided by this mission to serve patients, and it's almost like the oxygen that we breathe serving patients is at the heart of every single thing that we do.

To have over 25000 people coming to work every day and thinking about nothing but that patient at the end of the journey, to me is something really special.

It gives you the sense of purpose that you're really doing something that is worth it.

I feel proud working at Hampton so many years.

I never get bored.

Anything is possible when I wake up every day.

I think that what we are doing really matters.

Amgen recognizes that you have talents and this is a chance to work on really new and innovative projects all the time.

It still feels very pioneering.

We we've been around for over 40 years, right?

But there's still this essence of kind of an entrepreneurial spirit.

I believe in our global footprint because it makes us stronger.

Diversity, inclusion and belonging.

It's it's not just a business priority.

We all have a role to play in promoting a culture that celebrates diversity and makes inclusion really the norm.

Our greatest asset is our people.

They feel that what they do is critical to the success of the company.

We have amazing talent and the opportunity to work with great people.

It's so cool to be here in a place where that's true.

Our values, our social architecture actually helps to pull that together too.

So we all know of the environment that we're trying to work in and the and what we're trying to create here.

I think Amgen's creativity and the mindset of coming to work every day to invent something new that delivers a medicine to a patient, I mean, to me, that's just the perfect union.

The innovation that we're bringing can bring benefits to patients measured in months and weeks and days.

So that's why we need to accelerate and we need to challenge ourselves.

We need to say, is this the best that we can do because patients are waiting for us.


Our commitment to equal opportunity, fostering connection and valuing the power of all perspectives is foundational to who we are and how we operate. We strive to create an employee experience where people can grow, contribute, feel a sense of belonging, and reach their full potential through access to mentorship, sponsorship and meaningful development opportunities.

When our people thrive, Amgen is stronger. That is why we cultivate a culture where global leaders and employees share responsibility for shaping a high-impact and inspiring work environment – guided by our values and our aspiration to be the best human therapeutics company in the world. In doing so, we better position ourselves to innovate and drive results for patients, employees, and shareholders.
