Pros

The worker bees are great (CRAs, CSCs, etc). The research is interesting.

Cons

The managers are sneaky, two-faced, and gossipy. They have ruined the culture of this office. If you are a potential CRA or DM, RUN AWAY NOW.

Pros

Great products and good salary and benefits. The culture is still somewhat caring although not as much as it used to be.

Cons

Upward mobility limited by who you know more than by merit. You have to have a sponsor to move up. The HR function is very weak as it also is the senior leadership at the area levels. Good leadership is not an attribute the culture of the company rewards.

Pros

Has a final salary pension scheme , has a company car . That's about it.

Cons

Where to start ?! Middle managers totally uninterested in you. Flat structure. No chance of promotion. Constantly trying to sell their products and don't have engineers to back it up. You get to work late any evening for free and even weekends for no money- manager trying to save money. Lack of resources in IT, HR, basically every area is understaffed and over worked. Enjoy having your heart attack boys!!!
