Pros

Depending on the group you're in, the people. Most people are pretty down to earth and there are a fair amount of highly qualified people at the company.

Cons

- Management: My take is that they've been around far too long and are just collecting a pay check now. Beyond that, there isn't a lot of transparency into what the company is doing. The company has made some big moves recently, some of which employees read about in the news before an internal communication was sent. -Industry: Pharma distribution is rough right now and it doesn't appear to be getting better soon.

Pros

1. relatively aloof culture for ICs to grow on their own 2. on and off few people are good 3. Actually consultants in india are better than some full time hires to work with. The h1bs in full time roles and some GCs/Americans are just 1 step away from unemployment line but there are some good quality consultants who can be directed well to bring in good work. Problem is lack of direction when middle management is just running after money.

Cons

1. top most management is clueless to what is going post the middle tier 2. middle tiers - VPs/SVPs/Directors and Sr. Directors are among the worst. Mostly cast offs from Consulting firms/Tech cos/Other Healthcare firms, this group has some of the worst, clueless folks who just think very narrowly about how to get rid of problems, maybe craft a story for higher ups. Get rid of this layer ( so called people management ) and co. could shine better on the work of ICs, decent software engineers and regular rank and file. 3. Main money maker distribution is different from tech group and the IT here is almost comical - 2 years ago in 2024 there were "directors" bringing AI agents with 90% hallucination .. I mean that has got to be an industry first!
