Pros

Purpose driven company with strong values. Company has become much more innovative and comfortable with risk last few years. It is making major investments in new markets and technologies. Global growth presents good opportunities for people who work there and like the rapid pace environment.

Cons

Sometimes it feels like there is to much to do for the resources we have. The good news is that we really like what we do but we can feel stretched.

Pros

Great place to learn about manufacturing within a regulated industry. BD is large enough to gain experience across a wide variety of disciplines.

Cons

Management is partial to the existing community preferences i.e. religious affiliation. Additionally, promotions are few and far between (six years within a group and not one promotion for anyone for about 15 people). Very conservative culture leading to a risk-averse attitude while expecting sky-high results.
