Pros

Alcon treats their employees very well. Their quality control is top notch and they are always finding new ways to improve their product quality and operations.

Cons

There is sometimes conflict among the different departments within Alcon. Each department (Quality, Operations, R&D, Facilities, and Warehouse) do cooperate with each other at times, which leads to delay of product changes, release, etc.
