      Pros

      There are many contracting positions avilable with usually someone referring others to the company. The company does treat contractors as well as the employess the same.

      Cons

      Alcon seems to select candidates by similar backgrounds and culture, not based on skills. I did not see a lot of IT standards or best practices on my project. Also, the location is far away from most technical positions.

      Pros

      Compensation and bonuses are good and comparable to other similar jobs in the Atlanta area. Location is good as well.

      Cons

      Merger resulted in mass relocation of corporate jobs requiring people to move or to accept a severance package when job ends.
