Pros

If you are looking for an extreme challenge this company will deliver. The benefits are ok.

Cons

Everyone is disposable. Leadership has little to no respect for employees and far less for contractors. The culture is push you beyond your limits in the hopes that you will get your bonus. The turnover rate is about 30% so they are constantly hiring and firing.

Pros

If you have no interest in working, you can just smile and say "yes" to all the comments, you are good to go

Cons

Worse place too work, zero learning, no passion or motivation, small group of 2-3 people, hire interns with cheapest rate and ask them work more than full-times with no learning, none of the project are delivered complete, the manager has a very short-time vision of success, no interest in delivering their responsibilities right, I can go on and go on, there is no end for cons of the data science team at Danaher Labs
