Pros

Good offering and they have great control over pharma data analytics landscape. ZS is a leader in the space.

Cons

I had terrible experience at ZS - most of the work was excel based and no innovation. The worst still was how they treated me as an individual, and specifically attitude towards women. Most managers consider them less competent and have a bias. It is extremely unfortunate!! It seems leadership also has same attitude towards women and doesn't care.
