Pros

Some really talented and passionate people here whom you can be proud to work with. Some good middle managers who understand engagement and strive to support and develop their teams.

Cons

Extremely internally focused. Teams leap from one business review or budget submission to the next. Culture of micromanagement and lack of autonomy/ trust for the teams from leadership. Most head office folk spend all day everyday in meetings (including after hours) which leaves little time to progress workloads. Sad to see what was a mostly positive and supportive working environment deteriorate over the last couple of years.

Pros

The recruiter that I worked with was wonderful and very in tuned with my career goals and the type of team I wanted to be a part of. He answered all of my questions in a timely manner and was transparent on which roles he felt would be a good match based on the leadership, team, and career aspirations.

Cons

I did not have any cons related to my experience.

Pros

None, I cannot think of one pro.

Cons

The worst experience in my 15 plus career in pharma. The managers are horrible, they work you to death and show zero appreciation. I was so thankful I was a temp, as I would never have wanted to be a full time after what I experienced. It's basically a hot mess of bullying by managers and the Sr. Director's have poor SVPs they report into so it makes sense they management style is horrid.
