Pros

Great company that is focused on science and health. Great benifits

Cons

Upward advancement is very difficult and upper management bring in experience from outside instead of promoting from within. Company continually restructures and downsizes.

Pros

Summer and winter shutdowns are brilliant. Best in class 401K. Fantastic tuition riembursment.

Cons

The ongoing job level adjustments are becoming excessive. Vast reductions in director level jobs are adding to turnover and we've lost good talent as a result. The reduction in level 7 jobs also limits career paths.
