Schering-Plough – “Thousands of people will be unemployed during this Global Recession because of Fred; $60M to him, $0 to us.”

Pros

Pays well, reasonable work/life balance and in general, people are nice.

Cons

Extremely political - for career advancement you have to brown nose the correct people, which are few and far between. Promotions are not based on skill set but rather who you know.

Advice to Senior Management

The leadership behaviors are viewed as lip service by the people who actually do the work and we would appreciate it if you stopped insulting our intelligence.
