      Pros

      Alcon pay is very competitive and the 401k matching is almost too good to be true. Novartis buying Alcon has added a huge amount of production facilities/offices thus there are many new career pathways. I have high hopes for the new CEO, so far he is taking the right steps to improve the customer's experience.

      Cons

      The overwhelming amount a procedures(pharma centric) placed on a medical device company has prevented us from being able to make product improvements to benefit the customer. Alcon personnel have lost the innovative spirit and instead have turned into what does the procedure say robots.
