Good compensation, good resources, good support. People are supportive of your work and there is definitely a collaborative atmosphere there.

Pros

Great to be creating something that cures diseases Benefits are good (middle of road for pharma) Great when compared to other industries

Cons

Constant churn due to merger and reorganizations. Unable to create new products that can replace those facing the patent cliff makes it a company that has a lot of stress.
