Pros

Great benefits, mostly bright, motivated Type A colleagues, great flexibility with working from home (if you’re in the right department)

Cons

With new CEO Bourla, Increasingly political, too much unnecessary governance, no respect for employees (especially female), actual qualifications & experience no longer matter in job hiring particularly at higher levels. Facilities tired and nonfunctional, as is most of the pipeline.

Pros

A good amount of remote monitoring, which depending on how you view can be a positive.

Cons

Changing systems and inconsistent standards are applied to people. There are many differing models that often muddy how you are supposed to do your job, especially when other staff members don't quite understand. How do you interface with the changing models? There tends to be a lot of blame and foisting of responsibilities. Sometimes you can become overburdened with a lot of work, where people do not respect your time and think that their tasks should take priority. It is possible to be contacted late at night with work to do and then be criticized the next day for not being able to keep up.
