Culture & Careers

At Incyte, compensation goes beyond base pay. We offer a competitive compensation package, including annual incentive opportunities, increases in pay, equity grants and a range of benefits.  

We are committed to being an industry leader in terms of employee benefits and regularly monitor pay practices by industry, role, country and region. We review compensation annually to ensure that our employees are being compensated fairly and equitably. We make a concerted effort to hear from our employees about what they think can be done better, and we follow through by implementing changes to address their feedback.

Incyte employees can also expect a competitive benefits package to support their professional and personal growth, including:

  • Option to participate in our Employee Stock Purchase Plan for both full-time and part-time employees working at least 20 hours per week.
  • Industry-leading health insurance offering, including 100% coverage for full-time employees and 95% subsidized coverage for part-time employees working at least 20 hours per week in the U.S.

Bonded by a shared purpose, we never give up in our search for the next innovation that could help patients with serious diseases. We have created an environment where innovation, inspiration, collaboration and respect for each other are prioritized and where employees can grow and thrive to their full potential. For us, that also means building relationships and connections at all levels of the organization. Our management team makes themselves available to all employees. Our open-door culture, as well as frequent events and town halls with Q&A sessions, encourages two-way dialogue and continuous feedback.

A relentless focus on innovation is core to our culture. An example of how we foster new innovation among our employees is our “Innovation at Incyte” program (I2).  A catalyst for scientific breakthroughs, we invite all employees to submit a new idea, approach, tool or technology. Winners are chosen through a competitive review process annually and provided the necessary resources and funding to implement their plans.

At the heart of Incyte's business is the value we place on improving healthcare around the world, and a high level of environmental, health and safety performance is an important expression of this value. It is our goal to conduct business in a manner that does not compromise the health of people nor the state of the environment. It is our policy to comply with all applicable environmental health and safety (EHS) regulatory requirements and seek to continually improve our EHS management systems. A strong safety culture is a fundamental part of how we work, and our philosophy is that everyone at Incyte has a responsibility to create and maintain a safe and healthy workplace with a goal to reduce risk and prevent injuries. Our management team recognizes this responsibility and is committed to providing the resources necessary to achieve this goal.
