Pros

Long history of innovative products. Stable management teams. Most employees have a true concern for environment. Global company with global product reach makes for interesting markets. People with good ideas can bring them forward.

Cons

Since the management is stable and the organization is flat, there is little upward mobility. Though there is a call for innovation, some middle managers prefer to maintain the staus quo to ride out until retirement, thus they can appear to be un-supportive of new ideas.

Pros

The pharmaceutical industry is one of the most desirable to work for worldwide. There are various reasons on this, but it is principally due to the liberal benefits and prestige that these companies offer.

Cons

Well for me the only downsides i experienced with the companies was when they divested the Pharmaceutical groups. That is the ultimate reason why i was retrenched and leave Solvay Group/
