Better times may be approaching, but proceed with caution.
Pros
Competitive salary, decent work life balance and working with some very dedicated people.
Cons
Upper management has been exempt from the concept of accountability that is given much lip-service. The upper management "boys club" is predominately from the Sankyo side of the Daiichi-Sankyo merger. They have a tremendous sense of entitlement and love for early afternoon tee times. They have made a mockery of the corporate values and tried to paint a rosy picture for the parent company's Japanese leadership. Recently, the CEO, John Gargiulo was fired by the Japanese leadership, who hopefully have become aware of the fact that the US organization is highly dysfunctional. More leadership change is sorely needed for this company to be successful in the US.
