Pros

Pay and benefits are decent

Cons

Leaders are clueless and don't actually abide by the values that the company preaches - complete hypocrisy. The politics are absolutely insane. If you have good ideas and speak up, be prepared to be shown the door. It doesn't matter how well you perform. Direct managers are too disconnected to have your back. The worst in the company fail up, which exacerbates the leadership issues. We're bleeding our best talent because of it. It's toxic and getting worse. Stay away! The level of disrespect you'll endure is not worth the pay and benefits. No idea how the company wins "Best Place To Work Awards." No one I know is happy here.

Pros

I learned a lot while working this job. The systems like Veeva and Workfront were difficult to learn at first, but once I got the hang of them it was great. There were a lot of great people working around me that wanted to see me succeed.

Cons

Working as a contract worker had it's cons. At times, it felt like I was a little bit of an afterthought in the company with some superiors because I was not a full time employee. Communication suffered at times as well.
