Pros

Novartis is a great place to work. Compensation and benefits are good. Management structure is solid and not burdensome. The company is smart and is investing in areas that it sees as sources for future growth.

Cons

Pharmaceutical sales and marketing practices are rapidly changing. Novartis may not be the best company to pursue if you are seeking a career in pharmaceutical sales. They simply don't have a need for the number of sales reps they currently have. Their development pipeline has shifted towards specialty disease states that require fewer reps. The company is a prosperous future ahead, but it is one with far fewer sales reps than it has today.
