Pros

COP is a sub of CP, which offers a big company feel. It is small enough everyone knows each other.

Cons

Because it is smaller, advancement opportunities are limited. Good GMPs practices are practiced, no jewelry. In production area.

Pros

Benefits, competitive salary, global mobility if that is what you're looking for. Flexible time off and a decent bonus structure if you can make it to EICP.

Cons

Bureaucracy at its prime. Put your best lips on cause if your not kissing up, you might as well forget that next promotion. This is a marketing company, everything else is currently being outsourced to India in order to fund their growth because they can't seem to get their cost structure right. Severe spending inefficiencies in capex. New restructuring is so uprooting it is leaving loose ends.
