Pros

Opportunity to work with the best in the industry. You get complete ownership of the projects. Very good work life balance. Novartis actually cares for its employees, which is reflected in their policies.

Cons

This company provides a very good environment to grow. I can not think of any cons. New employees might find it difficult to adjust to the culture. You might feel that people socialize depending on the language they speak, but you can still join them.
