Pros

Benefits are still good, but appear to be chipped away at. Pipeline does appear to be improving as the number of Phase 3 clinical trials has increased in the last couple of years.

Cons

Senior leadership in Cambridge, MA is far too detached from ground truth in RTP, NC where a vast majority of manufacturing occurs. Decision making has continually been stripped away from mid-level or frontline, on-site leadership and pushed up to a fewer number of more senior leaders at headequarters in MA. This has led to disempowerment and a growing sense of impotence for NC based management. Additionally, there is no feedback mechanism for these MA based leaders to evaluate if the decisions they are making are reaching the right people in all the groups. As a result, cross-functional cooperation and efficiency has suffered greatly. Work/life balance is horrible whith few, if any, positions lost to attrition are back-filled.
