Pros

Company has been taken over by Novartis and the current regime is in danger.

Cons

Too many old school players still at Alcon. No vision, no leadership, no direction......current leadership is still holding on to the fame/luxury that Alcon provided in the 90's. Not work-life balance plans. Company culture has lost its identity. No cross-divisional work or stretch assignments. If you take a International assignment....you will never come back. If you do...it will be to a lesser position with no growth opportunities.
