Pros

Good pay for the area, great medical, dental and optical and a 401K matched up to 6%. Just about endless over time by department of course. 5 sick day, 4 personal day and 3 week vacation to start.

Cons

Management is lacking. In some cases if you don't kiss butt, and have big brests you won't be promoted no matter how hard you work. You get guilted when taking anytime off and it's held against you in your review. When working in the influenza department you can't have a life they don't treat you like a person just a number. They expect you to work obserd hours without asking or letting you know with out any notice.

Pros

Extensive and active employee resource groups, strong leadership development opportunities, clear company mission, gig opportunities that support career development, strong employee support through the ombuds office and compliance help line, and stable company portfolio.

Cons

No work-life balance considerations with hybrid work model, contradictions in company mission compared to policies (i.e., target to reduce carbon emissions with employee commuting to office as one of the top 5 causes but yet still requiring employees to commute to office 3 days a week), some office sites are not conducive to in office productivity (not enough privacy or space), compensation package is not competitive for MA pharmaceutical companies, long-term incentives have almost no value once they are vested, health care benefits require employees to jump through hoops to maximize discounts or qualify for coverage of certain medications, and accountability for department leadership to follow the corporate leadership pillars is inconsistent across departments.
