Pros

There is a great deal of information, knowledge within the IMS data assets. You can learn a lot about Pharma and products. Your peers are usually very friendly and competent. Benefits are good. This is a good place to learn & leverage to your next employer.

Cons

Unfortunately management doesn't clearly communicate the strategy, leaving the employees and customers to guess. They are trying to change the value of IMS into a Consulting firm leaving the data assets in the dust. Morale is very low as many are concerned for their jobs, targets are tenured /talented go-to employees. Use them, then lose them is the mantra. Customers are highly regarded however the new strategy will not support their day to day business.

Pros

The layoffs were handled quietly and unexpectedly, even though there were some early signs. They didn’t share who else was affected, but it was clearly more than just me.

Cons

They’re doing layoffs in phases, and my position was part of the most recent round.
