Pros

Great Benefits Package and good Work/Life Balance. The company overall felt warm and I really enjoyed my time working at sanofi aventis.

Cons

Talent development and recognition is dependent upon the department you work for. So if your manager, director or whatever, doesn't take the time to recognize your contribution, you will never be noticed. In addition, there is a lot of red tape. I also felt that when I worked hard to finish the project, the overall expectation became that I worked that hard all the time. Where as other employees who slacked off, often had less responsibilities. I felt at times I was almost punished for working harder and more efficiently.

Pros

Respectable company; high quality corporate culture, employees respect each other and each other's abilities. Employees, peers, subordinates, and managers want you to and help you succeed.

Cons

The pharmaceutical industry has recently been in a constant state of change with mergers, acquisitions, etc. This can cause strife in not knowing exactly what to expect from year to year in your job stability.

Pros

Great pay. Great benefits. Very few other employers in the area.

Cons

Unreasonable expectations from management. Very little room for promotion unless you're "in the club". Potentially long work-hours with comp time rarely given. You're only noticed when something goes wrong. They claim to be family friendly, but make you feel horribly guilty if you need time off when management feels you should be there. Morale is low with many people quitting or would if they could find another job. 10-20 minute walk to desk from the parking lot.
