Pros

Good 401k and health benefits, do not know if they have change the plans since I left the company years ago.

Cons

18 years as an employer and the last 1 to 2 year out of the 18 years, Novartis bought the private company few years ago when we became public in the stock market. Everything is a mess right now. the New company rights and all the new programs in the system has basically ruin what we once use to be the best eye care pharmaceuticals distribution center. I resigned for health reasons that the company did not have a job position that I could do. It is sad, my former manager recently retired due to this horrible mess and was told he was either going to get fire or take in the retirement. He has I think worked with Alcon more then 35 years.
