Pros

good company to work with if you land with right set of people

Cons

No ethics, Novartis policies says no compromise on values and behavior yet they hire people who were expelled from previous organization due to sexual harassment charges. Due to excessive favoritism people with tainted records are also hired in an accelerated process. Will not give promotions to deserving people due to politics while will hire people from outside having half the average experience of inside associates

Pros

Pays pretty well in comparison to similar jobs in the market

Cons

Unstable schedule where you are often asked to come in overnight (1-2 am) regardless of if you have worked the previous day or are off. Basically feels like you're permanently on-call to conduct environmental monitoring. Training is slow. The Micro dept in general is currently understaffed. The job also involves lab work once you are done with your daily environmental monitoring tasks. The work never ceases and the Technicians as a whole has several responsibilities. Promotions seem to come very slowly here.
