      Pros

      The environment at Novartis is good. Most employees are friendly and easy to work with. Most employees in higher positions were very approachable.

      Cons

      Mostly contractors doing the work with very few opportunities to advance. There are a few members in the department who are very manipulative and it is very hard to work with management to resolve some of the major issues.

      Pros

      As it just started there is a lot of opportunity to do different things and there is more opportunity for promotion.

      Cons

      It seems oversea experience is critical to get a good position. Local accociate has great disadvantage even they might equally competent or better.
