Pros

Company and role provide the opportunity to drive change, efficiencies, process improvement and overall performance of the business. Strong leadership allows individuals with high drive to enact change with freedom to work. The culture is very independent and decentralized in my division. We have a highly capable and accomplished scientific team.

Cons

Can be fragmented across business units and standardization can be lacking at times.
