Pros

Good paycheck at the end of each month. Very solid product portfolio and respected by external clients.

Cons

Novartis is trying to dismantle Alcon and get rid of the original Alcon employees. With Novartis dark hand behind, not a good way to start a career.

Pros

You work half of the year, and still make a decent amunt of money. Most of the team leaders and management are cool.

Cons

Only problem was the long hours, 12 hours a day is not for everyone. I was one of those people. Some shifts are lazy some really work.
