      contractors treated poorly

      Pros

      The idea of work from home was nice until you realize they just take it away.

      Cons

      Contractors are treated like garbage. Can't use the gym, can't go to an office party or eat pizza that was ordered for everyone because you are a contractor. Managers don't even look at you or speak to you like you're not human. There is next to no chance of Novartis ever making you one of their employees. Contracting agency then takes most of your money and you make very little. No training or career growth at all and all contractors have noncompetes....so Novartis won't even hire a contractor because of the noncompete you wee forced to accept to even work there. Not much diversity or fair treatment of contractors. Basically made to feel worthless if you are a contractor. Mangers all have stay at home wives while they expect you to work all the time and not have a life of your own.
