          Pros

          Good benefits and 401k. Consistent yearly pay from a quota perspective.

          Reward smaller territories. Paid on % rather than growth. Caps on products and no incentives for higher volume.

              Business Outlook

              Pros

              Fantastic Culture Flexible work arrangements- In office, Hybrid and some remote positions depending upon role. Very Good Benefits (better coverage and cheaper than my last employer) Encourage people to try other roles in business rather than leaving with lots of opportunities. Many roles get stock grants with 3-4 year vesting schedule They encourage you to use time off 2 week paid sick leave

              Cons

              Global company so some roles have very early and/or very late meetings with other geographies. Must be managed Significant amount of process and other churn due to regular acquisitions (not people) Rating process is cumbersome (but thorough) Vacation time off not as generous as some but not bad

                    Pros

                    Benefits are really good and most employees seem to truly enjoy working in an organization that produces life saving medicines.

                    Cons

                    Changes occur slowly. The amount of processes that require approval are insane.

                      Project Coordinator

                      What is going on with this new practice. You apply for a job get confirmation for it etc. And then you get e message directly from the company that you just applied for and they are like if you would like to apply for this position follow this link?! This keeps happening how does it make any kind of sense?

                      Leasing Manager

                      I recently received a Job offer. I accepted it verbally in order for them to send me the official offer letter.It does match everything they described to me (based on salary, sign on bonus, & relocation assistance.) However the question I have is should i attempt to negotiate for a higher base salary? When speaking to my parents about it they told me that the time for negotiation is over as I accepted the offer as it stands and they sent it to me.
