Pros

Good benefits and remote flexibility

Cons

Does not care about employees -- you will not be rewarded for hard work, company does not promote from within. Visit metric is 6/month, but chances are you will be doing 10-13/month.

Pros

Established company with multiple business units, many experienced medical personnel with years of research experience, average work/life balance depending on account and time of the year, mid-level managers see the needs of the clients and employees, good place for a start in pharmaceuticals and medical devices.

Cons

High turn-over within 2 years, few opportunities to advance without mid-level manager sponsorship, low to mid-range pay scale for industry, senior managers don't have interest in employees.
