CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Telecommute flexibility; great people in lower and middle management; biggest data provider in pharma space

Cons

Senior management out of touch with employees. More of a "cog in a wheel" feel these days. Salary increases happen when you leave and come back rather than staying with the company.
