Pros

I've heard claims that outside the IT Service Center the company is a Utopian playground for employees. There's an on-site gym and a decent credit union at the main corporate building at least.

Cons

Rewards incompetence by promoting it up the food chain. Meetings are a constant time sink once you make it above analyst level - but don't expect to get anything done in them. Kaizen events intended to streamline processes are rarely followed through on, or affect long term change. It is entirely about who you know and whose ass you've kissed most recently when it comes to internal interviews. Positions open and are filled without ever being posted publicly, by supervisors promoting their friends and favorites.

Pros

Great overall culture. Plenty of room for advancement if you are able and willing. Senior management consists of some of the brightest/most experienced individuals I have ever interacted with. Incredible facilities (at least in Dublin). A very diverse and accepting atmosphere.

Cons

Pay is not the greatest- I would say slightly above average, HR will say this is because of "the work/life balance you will enjoy at cardinal health. While your neighbors may earn more, they will be required to work 50-60 hrs/week" blah blah blah. It really depends on who you report to and what your job function will be if you actually work only 40 hrs/week. I've seen interns who work up to 60 hrs/week (I was one of them).
