      Pros

      -good carrer orientation. -good work life balance -supportive management -no time keeping practice , which give employees a kind of freedom to perform. -good pipeline. -Company has good ethics. -Work gets recognized in form of awards

      Cons

      -location priority -As company works more on outsourcing model, vendors are more previleged/prioritized then employees -If you show off you get promoted else you are ignored (management is not capable of tracking the right candidate). -you scrach my back, I shall scratch your back approach from management. -If you have technical orientation for IT, wrong place to work.

      Very good for many years until abruptly laid off.

      Pros

      Always had good products to sell and promise of more to come.

      Cons

      I was a long term employee with a good track record. I got laid off with only 11 months to go before I was eligible for lifetime benefits (with Novartis paying for 80% of the cost).
