Pros

The benefits are great. Pension and 401k can't be beat. Good amount of vacation time.

Cons

Temps and contractors get many jobs full timers want. Can't escape manufacturing, once there, no hope of getting out. Manufacturing work environment is poor. Education means nothing here. I have a Master's degree and have answered to superiors with little or no post high school education and also many times less experience. Also the internal promotions are a joke compared to what they pay outside candidates.

Pros

Great benefits. A company that truly cares about its employees and their welfare. This place is great for working parents.

Cons

Annual increases are small in some years; the value of your salary can erode over time if you stay in the same position.

Pros

The company has an excellent, very collegial atmosphere. Employees are supported well and there is excellent support for most processes from numerous line functions.

Cons

Some processes as well as the governance structure can be a bit confusing. More so than other large pharma companies. But even with this. There are almost always enough people who know how to get things done.
