Vantaggi
IMS Health is the global pharmaceutical market research leader, therefore the experience gained by working for IMS can create many future opportunities. The health care benefits are no-cost coverage which is always a plus. Furthermore, positions in the Data Integrity department require very fulfilling analytical work (think puzzle solving). Since IMS is a knowledge oriented company, advancement is also knowledge oriented rather than seniority oriented.
Svantaggi
Nothing internal comes to mind. However, externally, the clients tend to always question the data provided. Inquiries come in about data trends that are exemplary of competitive product switching, yet still clients will be in denial and question the data. For the most part, data integrity's job is to resolve data issues or validate data trends. Second, like in all companies there are some small adjustments that can be made to increase efficiency.
