Company Overview
For more than 130 years, Lilly has been dedicated to meeting the health care needs of people in the United States and around the world. We address these needs primarily by developing innovative medicines—investing a higher percentage of our sales in research and development than any other major pharmaceutical company.
Company History
We were founded by Eli Lilly in 1876, and are now the 10th largest pharmaceutical company in the world. We have steadfastly remained independent, but not isolated. Across the globe, Lilly has developed productive alliances and partnerships that advance our capacity to develop innovative medicines at lower costs. Lilly is consistently ranked as one of the best companies in the world to work for, and generations of Lilly employees have sustained a culture that values excellence, integrity, and respect for people.
Notable Accomplishments / Recognition
Receiving recognition for a job well done is always a special honor. It's an affirmation that we are sustaining Lilly's heritage of service and commitment to helping others. Making a difference in people's lives is often reward enough. Nevertheless, at Lilly we are proud of the awards we have received for the accomplishments and contributions we've made in our industry and to society overall.
