Eli Lilly and Company Employer Profile Eli Lilly and Company is a global research-based pharmaceutical corporation located in Indianapolis, IN dedicated to creating and delivering innovative pharmaceutical-based health care solutions that enable people to live longer, healthier and more active lives. Lilly employs more than 31,000 people worldwide and markets its medicines in 161 countries. The company has major research and development facilities in nine countries and conducts clinical trials in more than 30 countries. The world’s best scientific minds Colonel Eli Lilly set the standard when he founded our company in 1876: Lilly pharmaceuticals would be based on the best science of the day. Some 123 years later, his philosophy remains the heart of all our scientific efforts. It’s also the reason our research and development team is considered among the industry’s elite. In 1998, Prozac and five other innovative products accounted for all of our sales growth. Two of those products, Zyprexa and Evista, set new standards for shortening development time and getting to market more quickly. Last year, our R&D team targeted 25 additional uses for our current products and nearly 40 entirely new molecules. These molecules include potential therapies for cancer, depression, migraine headaches, diabetic retinopathy, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, bacterial infections andsepsis. Because of the team’s efforts, our pipeline is strong. It has depth. And it has breadth. The performance of our R&D people has been a major weapon in our global battle with competitors for top scientific talent. In 1998, nearly 600 new recruits joined our experts, energized at the prospect of being members of an R&D team that boasts some of the world’s best scientific minds. Armed with an arsenal of new tools and technologies, Lilly’s scientific brain trust is positioned to create more unprecedented value for patients and the company. We think Colonel Lilly would be pleased. Please visit our Home Page for more information. |
