As i said it is a school of pharmaceutical business with good career pathway to go through and to be promoted, it is a reputable company within the field and between its customers with reputable products which are brands, also having a big pipline make it go forward further and further

Cons

For being a big company you have to be a lion between other lions and to compete fairly with your colleages, so work-life balance maybe affected

Pros

Pays pretty well in comparison to similar jobs in the market

Cons

Unstable schedule where you are often asked to come in overnight (1-2 am) regardless of if you have worked the previous day or are off. Basically feels like you're permanently on-call to conduct environmental monitoring. Training is slow. The Micro dept in general is currently understaffed. The job also involves lab work once you are done with your daily environmental monitoring tasks. The work never ceases and the Technicians as a whole has several responsibilities. Promotions seem to come very slowly here.
