Pros

Great compensation package and flexible hours but THAT'S IT

Cons

There is no loyalty at this company so if you think that if you perform three years in a row and you won't be laid off, think again. You will be treated exactly as it states in the offer letter you sign, "Employee at Will." Do not be fooled by talk of development opportunities, those are saved for the white males. One can actually see middle management threatened by the intelligent and beautiful women in the room. It's terrribly upsetting. Galderma just had layoffs—only three years since the last one. This was after they promised that we were all safe and we were developing biologics. There is NOTHING in the pipeline. All the drugs are going off patent (going to generic) and there are rumors the RX division will be sold....aka more layoffs. Sure, acquisitions are possible but why keep a Salesforce if there is already one out there for the drug being acquired?

Pros

Learned a lot about other functions...but only because of lack of process/structure.

Cons

30% below industry average salary. Some departments rule by fear and are highly unprofessional. Restructures gave chance to make changes, but nothing happened. Good and hard workers experience burnout to make up lack of work of others. I Learned a lot at this company, but my negative attitude and stress spilled over into my personal life. It is hard to get away from it, so my advice is to stay away.

Toxic Workplace

Pros

The building in Dallas is beautiful

Cons

The way management treats team members is belittling and cruel. Management will throw you under the bus to make themselves look good because they are scared of losing their jobs because of the IPO. Passive aggressive behavior and no one trusts each other they are out for themselves. Very cut throat. Bonus is low as is the pay. We cannot fill our open positions and so we all work long hours and are burned out.
