Pros

Great benefits, including very good health insurance. Typical perks of big pharma company.

Cons

Managers are stressed out consistently and therefore it can be a hostile working environment. Layoffs were a constant problem and so much so that some whole teams disappeared, even managers. This created a cut-throat scenario to work in with colleagues. Bonuses were not reflective of reality.
