Pros

Big company, promotions available if you are internationally mobile. Hard driving and results oriented at most costs.

Cons

Little feel good about what you type of culture. Do not expect leaders to have good emotional IQ.

Pros

Career possibilities across pharma and other divisions possible if you have good sponsors and network

Cons

Over promises and underdelivers when it comes to your benefits package, career advancements and employee care in general. You need to be one of the 'in people' to make it. Hard work environment with little tolerance for diversity.

Pros

Novartis sells fantastic drugs. The benefits are fantastic. Overall compensation is at the top. Met some great sales reps who were all very professional.

Cons

You have way too many partners selling the same products. The training that I received was awful. Management was never on the same page.
