Pros
Growing company (through acquisition rather than organic growth) in a growing industry, animal health, so possibly opportunities for development. Diverse job opportunities: sales and marketing, manufacturing, R&D - something for everybody. Great projects and products.
Cons
Hasn't handled recent large acquisitions well,with seriously negative effects on culture, morale, retention. Despite recent global acquisitions, they remain very US-centric - foreign markets don't get adequate materials or budget to deliver customer needs. They don't "walk the talk" with regards to their corporate values - they say one thing but don't put it into practice. Rolling acquisitions have resulted in rolling retrenchments - poor employment security since 2014. The outlook is for more uncertainty. They handle the retrenchment process poorly. Communication and transparency is appalling. Be warned: you're likely to discover your imminent retrenchment in the industry press rather than from your manager. Very high expectations - the last few years of my job were high stress and long hours for little acknowledgement and inadequate salary.
