Pros

Great coworkers, access to high level professionals across many departments for mentorship meetings. Allowed me to participate fully in projects. Great mentorship when available. One of the biggest pharma companies in the world allows access to great facilities and being on the cutting edge of business.

Cons

Long commute (mostly my own fault). Downsizing during my employment. Empty office spaces. Interns were not allowed to use athletic facilities. Sometimes mentors were unavailable due to travel/personal business.

Pros

Pays pretty well in comparison to similar jobs in the market

Cons

Unstable schedule where you are often asked to come in overnight (1-2 am) regardless of if you have worked the previous day or are off. Basically feels like you're permanently on-call to conduct environmental monitoring. Training is slow. The Micro dept in general is currently understaffed. The job also involves lab work once you are done with your daily environmental monitoring tasks. The work never ceases and the Technicians as a whole has several responsibilities. Promotions seem to come very slowly here.
