Pros

- focus on inclusive environment - offices are the best looking from what I've seen - Work from home oriented - strong company fundamentals - money is not the issue - the purpose is noble

Cons

- it is not IT company, so there is not many experts in fields - pharmaceuticals is highly controlled plus it's a corporate, so the amount of bureaucracy is huge - everything is super slow - there is a lot of incompetent people having their warm seats or climbing the ladder
