Good company but does not recognise talent

Business Outlook

Pros

Good work and social life balance. Opportunity to work with talented and brilliant scientists. Opportunity to be involved in innovative projects. I really enjoyed working there. Relaxed atmosphere, flexitime helps.

Cons

Salary was average, very disappointed as Syngenta is the worlds biggest agrochemical company . Salary rise was low despite record profits and sales. Most definitely lower than competitors I.e. Bayer, Dow, DuPont, Monsanto and BASF. NO OVERTIME despite working more than 40 hours a week. Career progression is non existent to a non- Phd holder. Too much politics. Job is always under treat, I feel like I'm one mistake away from being being replaced. I don't feel appreciated despite my best efforts.
