Pros

Successfull company driven by a focus on delivering results. Good teams. Divisions have been pretty independent, (which is more and more changing) . Good development opportunities.

Cons

Sometimes too pushy on strictly making the numbers. QA is getting stronger and stronger, watch out on bureaucracy. Need to see how Novartis Services organization will perform.
