Pros

Great opportunity to explore various divisions and industry exposures Well know on the market and seen as THE experts in their fields good people focus

Cons

surprisingly low degree of standardisation around basic corporate functions (Finance, HR, Orga, IT). IT infrastructure is very aged and would ramp up the services levels if there would be a better system supported workflow infrastructure in place (Report writing automation, sample tracking etc). still very manual. Salary is not industry leading and a bit behind

Pros

Plenty of work, decent benefits

Cons

Management can get in the way of things and their is also constant shifting. Also, management has to unfortunately wear a lot of hats which gets in the way of adequate training for new hires and can sometimes lead to issues.
