      Pros

      paid my basic overhead while employed

      Cons

      unprofessional, my work was swiped by long term employees, I was bullied at my desk by peers who were employees in addition to being picked on and made fun of for eating salad at lunch and running after work. Most higher level HR have long commutes and have tenure to pick choose and bully up when then feel an urge. They back up other long term employees that keep them employed. It blue shirt black market old school.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Average benefits for biotech, which is above average for most other industries. Mostly good people dedicated to making patients' lives better. Reasonably current on technology with good training opportunities.

      Cons

      There are a lot of contractors and short-term fix mentality must be challenged on a regular basis. Some administrative departments are very cliquey and can be difficult to support. Longer hours than should be are required for similar work done at similar companies. Not the greatest work-life balance.
