Pros

Great pipeline, tons of projects going on, good people overall, very nice and convenient facilities (East Hanover), good culture, great benefits.

Cons

When it comes to managers, it's a hit or miss. You may get a very good one or you may get the complete opposite. Over the last few years, began outsourcing a lot of work, even entire departments, leading to many internal layoffs. These outsourcing companies to a terrible job with the clinical trials! It's a shame where this is headed!
