Pros

Work/life balance, good compensation, perks that sometimes go with working in a big company. Also, a great place to work if you like working in an academic environment. The above are specific to NIBR, not necessarily all of Novartis

Cons

Very little is challenging and career growth is limited if you are not in the science areas (which I suppose make sense and is probably appropriate for the group). The above are specific to NIBR, not necessarily all of Novartis

Pros

Novartis has strong pipelines, and good benefits, including great paid time off, and holidays, it also has strong internal training offers to each level employees

Cons

Generally, less promotion opportunities, and too political in office as in some other companies, and communication cross functions not good
