Scary management

Pros

Some nice people on the staff

Cons

Management is scary and demanding. The place is not professionally run. The CEO comes into the office about 15 hours a week. Meanwhile, the department manager in publishing spends the day surfing the internet. If you are a lower level person, you will do tons of work. You will get a lot of blame if something goes wrong but you will never be praised.

Pros

CLD is basically a one-stop shop for pharma training materials. It was a good place to hone writing skills and learn about different disease areas, but that's about it.

Cons

It was very much an assembly line type of experience. You came in, wrote for 8 hrs, went home. Very little interaction with other employees. Writers were excoriated for the slightest mistakes. Not surprisingly, there was very high turnover in the writing department. Pay and benefits were mediocre at best. Employees were expected to show up at work during blizzards or be docked for time off. Very low morale. The graphics department seemed a bit better.

Nice coworkers, but no growth opportunities.

Pros

The location is convenient and you'll have a lot of nice people around you. I don't think the management is intentionally trying to screw you, I just don't think they know any better.

Cons

There is limited growth potential, no bonuses or perks and the pay is not where it should be. The workloads are not fairly distributed among teams and the hours are long.
