Pros

Tremendous scope for movement & development. Great products across a broad range of healthcare solutions. Big, international projects with real impact.

Cons

Mismatched expectations across international teams. Inconsistent management quality across functions & divisions. There are different cultural norms for work/life balance depending on site & business unit. Compensation is middle of the road for most roles/functions.

Pros

Do the right thing when it comes to their employees and the patients they serve Positive work environment, lots of autonomy

Cons

Can be crippled by legal concerns, which while understandable, can be to the point of ridiculousness. We are more strapped by legal than other pharmacy companies.
