Vantaggi

The resources behind the postdoc project make it attractive to do a postdoc at Novartis. In addition, the scale of experiments is large. Instead of thinking about a single protein family member, we are authorized to go after the entire family.

Svantaggi

The biggest down side to being a postdoc in industry - at least at Novartis - is feeling isolated. The postdocs do not work on pipeline projects, which is good so that our work can be published, but every one around is working on a pipeline project, with tangential relationship to the postdoc project. Most labs only have 1 postdoc, so it is easy to feel isolated.

Vantaggi

Pays pretty well in comparison to similar jobs in the market

Svantaggi

Unstable schedule where you are often asked to come in overnight (1-2 am) regardless of if you have worked the previous day or are off. Basically feels like you're permanently on-call to conduct environmental monitoring. Training is slow. The Micro dept in general is currently understaffed. The job also involves lab work once you are done with your daily environmental monitoring tasks. The work never ceases and the Technicians as a whole has several responsibilities. Promotions seem to come very slowly here.
