Pros

The global compensation package is good

Cons

Company seems indifferent to its employees. It is all about visibility. If you do a good job and stay low - good luck. Doing your job well has no basis on your ratings - its all about initiatives that leads no where. The company has become a fraternity. Only certain cliques are allowed upward moblity

Pros

It's a decent place to start a career and grow a little. There can be decent opportunities found for those who come in on an entry level job. There are also opportunities for career development if the funding is there for your specfic department.

Cons

While Schering can be an OK place to start a career and grow a little, dependent upon what area / department you are in, you may be better off searching for another mid-career position elsewhere after a little experience has been gained here.
