      Pros

      Company is willing to invest in training and development of employees. Sometime too much that lost focus on what is urgent and practical. Company emphasis a lot of integrity and compliance with strong process and management to support it.

      Cons

      cost management overrides human management. Thus losing skills and talents and the current employees need to struggle with the work.

      Pros

      Alcon has a great atmospehere and people that made me feel welcomed during my internship. I worked in many different areas from from development to support and many others. Alcon let me use what I learned in the classroom as well as teaching me many skills. And Alcon pays its internes which helped me pay for my a year of school. Finally, I loved working there because I felt motivated to walk in knowing I would feel rewarded from what I was learning but more rewarded for the services Alcon provides for the patients.

      Cons

      Not many opportunities to work with people my age. I was still an college student and had to quickly learn to work with people my parents age. But at the end of the day this taught me a valuable life skill of working with different people.
