Vantaggi

Great work/life balance - few work over 40 hours/wk. Great compensation and benefits. Friendly and real people. Top of the line facilities and equipment (laptops, blackberries, etc.).

Svantaggi

Limited career advancement due to relatively flat organization. Being a large organization with 50,000+ employees, jobs are very specific and you will be limited in regards to what you are exposed to and learn. There are few managers under 40 and even fewer directors under 45. if you are looking for a fast track career go with consulting. If you are looking for a comfortable career (read less hours but slower advancement), go with pharma.

Vantaggi

Over my tenure, I had the opportunity to work alongside highly talented and mission-driven colleagues dedicated to improving patient outcomes. The organization provided exposure to cross-functional collaboration, leadership development opportunities, and meaningful work supporting healthcare providers, patients, and community stakeholders. I appreciated the company's commitment to innovation, professional growth, and serving patients through scientific advancement.

Svantaggi

Like many large organizations, priorities and organizational structures evolved over time, which occasionally created uncertainty and changes in responsibilities. Decision-making processes could sometimes be complex due to the size of the organization, and navigating multiple layers of stakeholders occasionally impacted speed and execution.
