Pros

Benefits, annual profit share, perfect place to slack off (if you've been employed long enough), okay salaries (on the cheap side)

Cons

- Type A personalities not appreciated. Preference goes to low risk employees (w/ kids, debt, no ambition) - You will find managers/directors with an associate bachelor degree managing people with top MBAs! - CEO is a high schooler. I want to know which high school he attended so I point it out to Bloomberg to include in their MBA rankings. - It is who you know ... friends are hiring friends. - Firm is lacking integrity; currently under Corporate Integrity Agreement with the Federal Government for off labeling marketing of Depakote (= reason for the split from Abbott) - Disorganized company still trying to separate from the mother ship (Abbott). Cultural survey pointed out lack of work life balance.

Pros

I learned a lot while working this job. The systems like Veeva and Workfront were difficult to learn at first, but once I got the hang of them it was great. There were a lot of great people working around me that wanted to see me succeed.

Cons

Working as a contract worker had it's cons. At times, it felt like I was a little bit of an afterthought in the company with some superiors because I was not a full time employee. Communication suffered at times as well.
