Joining the Ironwood team means becoming an owner and founder of the company. As owners, we are careful stewards of our resources: we celebrate definitive answers regardless of whether those answers support holding steady or changing course. As founders, we share a responsibility to build and grow this company, and we have open-mic meetings and open-door policies to encourage everyone to contribute.

The high value we place on individuals means we’re intensely focused on finding and developing the best people. Yet equally important is the ability of those people to work together: to support, challenge and learn from each other. Collaboration is at the heart of how we do business: we strive to be good partners to our investors, licensing partners, patients, physicians, contractors and each other.

And while we’re working hard to create an enduring pharmaceutical company that helps people lead better lives, we’re having fun while we’re doing it – that last part is written into our core values.
