Pros

The coworkers are all nice

Cons

Management sucks. You have directors sitting in their offices for hours at end, to the point I didn't know who the director was, not knowing who is working for them, nor do they know what actually goes on within their labs. You have people leaving left and right because they refuse to pay their employees what they are worth, and burning them out with demands to work on their days off--with consequences if they don't. They constantly tell people, "we know your worth (with a degree), but we can't increase your pay from a typical fast food employee's wage to what our millions in revenue reflects." Don't work here. It's not worth it.

Pros

Great company to grow your career. You are able to work on challenging and interesting projects. You can develop a great network. Love that we have diversification as you can transfer from different divisions to gain new experiences. Great benefits. I get to work with a lot of smart and great people. We really focus on talent management/development.

Cons

We require 4 days a week in the office. We work really hard but it's fulfilling work. Performance expectations are high but that is why we are a successful company.
