Pros

Competitive salary and good benefits. Because the corporation is a matrix organization, there are many opportunities to work in different departments. Advancement seems to be fair. Flexible hours are also a benefit. Resources are never an issue, although budget is becoming more of a managed affair. Educational assistance plan is very generous. Directors also are provided a vehice and gas card.

Cons

Large organization that tends to switch strategies every 1.5 years. The reporting chain is somewhat artifcial due to its regional groupings. The sales force is somewhat cavalier. HR is very large, but offers little personal service. Corporate messaging sometimes lack sincerity.

Pros

It`s one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world.It has a big reputation.Since they act selectively while choosing employees you do have sort of prestige.Great benefits for employees and a good salary.They provided breakfast lunch and twice tea time during a day.Wokring hours are short compared to other industries.

Cons

Too bureocratical.Changing an inefficient process is almost impossible.The factory is a bit old, needs some restoration.They don`t care much about the interns.Interns arent allowed to take and responsibility, therefore they dont let you to try and explore much.
