Pros

Work culture, salary hikes, facilities (medical and residential) are excellent in nature. Great place to work. Management is very friendly too and provide great freedom.

Uncertainty in jobs. Anyone can be fired anytime. It is highly uncertain and also a lot of cost cutting is being done these days which has led to employee dissatisfaction.

- At the same time that we have the heads becoming inflexible, the managers give too many chances for people that is not performing, overloading the teams -Low salary -It is common to see people becoming senior without any experience on the department. It is not a fair system. - It is mandatory to present improvement projects otherwise it will impact in your bonus. - There is a lot of people in strategic positions which does not speak at least English.

Business Outlook

Pros

Legacy Hoechst, Sandoz and Süd-Chemie business, fading away though Global (shrinking) footprint Some well established business units

Cons

Downgrading and salary reductions, compensation not competitive compared to peers like Arxada, Lonza, Straumann, etc. Hostile management behaviour, bullying, mobbing,.... management by threat Management's only competence is them praising themselves for labor cost arbitrage after kicking out competent, loyal, well-performing Europe-based employees replacing them with staff on off-shore service centres in India and Poland. The company even celebrates this on LinkedIn, what an insult to affected Europe-based colleagues. Management favours their own circle of friends
