Pros

The working times are very flexibel and even home office is possible, but you will also need that to be able to take phonecalls with international colleagues. But great coworkers and direct manager.

Cons

Heavy workload with long working hours and Senior Management puts on a lot of pressure.

Pros

Knowledgable management. I am sorry I do not have any more "Pros" to offer.

Cons

Too much travel with sub-standard equipment. There was no work/life balance it was only work.

Pros

There's good job security here. I'm closing in on a decade with this company and have the benefit of primarily working from home. At the very least, it's a steady paycheck.

Cons

The pay here is lousy compared to Pharma companies. They also are very top-heavy and tend to overextend and burn out lower-level employees.
