Pros

Pay, ability to travel with role. London office is nice with free food but not enough seats.

Cons

From the very top down the culture is incredibly toxic. UK Management is incompetent and staff are bullied and broken down until they quit or are forced to leave. HR is a joke, one person in particular is a major source of the problem in the UK. Pipeline is terrible with no prospects.

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.
