Greed to Be #1

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Nothing Anymore Most everything worth wile has been taken away.

Cons

There are way too many to list As a HR Person I see how the Quest to be #1 in the industry has resulted in Corporate GREED. The Board cares about nothing but being on the top and will do what ever they want to get there. They would even sell their Mothers as slaves if that is what it takes. . In HR we have been told not to Help the employees but to do "what is good for the company" so they can get the stock. We need to holding employees back and delaying hiring as log as we can to save $$$

Pros

Met nice people, very warm lab people but colder commercial people

Cons

Not promoted/hired based on merit/appropriate qualifications, very biased (almost always based on who they know), a lot of French people, previous head was French, some French interns were even flown in because of their connection with the boss and paid 3-4 times as much for the same work. Apparent social gap between locals and foreigners/expats, incompetent bosses. Poor career progression and very very tight headcount, some graduates (some with master degrees) intern for a very long time without proper benefits before finally converting. Environment is also very political. Bosses are reluctant to accept your medical/hospitalisation leave, which I think is sickening because health should not be taken lightly.
