Pros

Great Company to work for. Especially you are just getting into the pharmaceutical industry. Gives you a good feel of the pharma world and what to expect.

Cons

Novartis Take Over has certainly changed the culture. Some like... others choose not to make the transition.

Pros

Good benefits and healthcare. Nice and friendly coworkers. Company parties. The plant is Air conditioned. The days off and PTO are great.

Cons

12 hour long and grueling shifts that feel like they will never end. The lunches were a little too short for my liking but there were plenty of breaks to make up for it.
