Pros

Good benefits. Relaxed management style. Great opportunity to learn about big pharma if no prior experience.

Cons

This company piles way too much work on its lower-level employees. The pay (at least for me) was very poor considering the amount of work I was producing. The turnover is crazy and management did not re-hire in a timely enough manner. While I was one of the few who could manage the workload in my department, I was so stressed when I worked here. The people at this company are hostile to each other as well; escalations are the norm.
