Pros

The benefits are great with this company. (Time off, 401k, insurance). The pipeline is decent. They also are truly a patient centered business, that makes a positive difference in patients lives. If my family needed these treatments, I would send them to get a Genzyme treatment in a heartbeat.

Cons

Pay. Salary is on the low end for this field. The bonuses are acceptable. The most raise you will ever get is 2%, and that's if you are the top 5%. That lack of growth for this company makes it a stepping stone. You will get enough experience to be a great asset for another company, making significantly more money. Also, lack of organization. Change is good, but it really feels like upper management makes unnecessary changes to validate their jobs.

Decent company with poor management in many departments

Pros

The pay was good for the local area where it was located. Benefits were decent. You got to know many people, because it still had that small company feel even though they were part of a large corporation.

Cons

There is waaaay too much favoritism and nepotism. I've seen many, many good people let go or not promoted. Even if you worked hard and long hours, and obtained results, you would be put in the bottom of the bucket at review time because a certain percentage had to go there, no matter what each year. People that were promoted were not qualified, had poor management skills, and even worse people skills! Many times, they didn't promote from within.
