Flexible schedule for life events and needs. Impact and knowledge edge gained from different areas of the business through collaboration.

Pros

Good training, tools and resources available to help you grow. Basic flexible work/home life.

Cons

PPD is only good if you are early in your career....learn the ropes, train to better yourself which will enhance your resume. Basically, a company if you are new to the workforce. Salary is not the best, but again, it's a excellent starting point in your job career.

Pros

You will gain exposure to a wide variety of therapeutic areas that will serve you well establishing a career in pharma.

Cons

Expectations and workload not commensurate with the pay. Over a decade of poor management has led to a bureaucratic and operational nightmare in my department. Opportunities for advancement are few and far between. Employees get burned out and end up making lateral moves.
