Pros

robust pipeline, stellar future, good company sponsored initiatives like summer Fridays, helping community opportunities, learning /growth opportunities, etc.

Cons

Some teams in CSPV may not be ideal for everyone. The workload can feel overwhelming, with long hours and high expectations. Responsibilities are often assigned without adequate training or guidance, and in certain teams, particularly in Safety, you may miss out on company perks like Summer Fridays, destressor weeks, LinkedIn Learning, or other initiatives. Burnout is a constant concern, with no clear solutions in place. The culture is extremely fast-paced, to the point that it's normalized, and if you're coming from a more structured, larger pharma environment, it may be difficult to adjust—here, you'll likely be expected to handle the responsibilities of several departments at once. There is also bias/favoritism and company politics. No work life balance in PV even though it is being promoted on large scale in the company!!!
