Pros

New and growing company. Offers great health benefit packages. Cafeterias in most buildings. Lots of selections for lunch. They are trying to improve culture by offering free food, entertainment at lunch hours & misc. .

Cons

Too many employees came over from Abbott and brought the bad culture with them. The management is very political. Upper management is seen as royalty and does not treat lower level employees well. People will undercut you for their personal gain. Company is so large you get lost in the shuffle. People were put into management positions that are not qualified.

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.
