Pros

This company is a good way to start your career. You can gain valuable experience when you are new to the working world.

A hostile atmosphere where the work is hard and advancement is nearly impossible

Business Outlook

Pros

Interesting drugs and antibodies to work on, some of which gain FDA approval.

Cons

The work pace is grueling. No advancement after nearly 5 years. Demotions are more common than promotions. Management does not care about growing their workers, just uses them up and spits them out. Employees are nice, but burned out from the pace. Moral is, on the whole, abysmal. Tattling is common between a select few workers and management, making for a environment where trust is not present.
