Pros

Company resputation and product. Average payscale/benefits compared to local peer pharmaceutical companies

Cons

1.Short of hands and resources at bottom execution level. Limited number of scientists work in the lab all the time to feed the whole report line (-senior scientist -manager- senior manager-Associate director-director-senior director, up to VP.....). Decisions are made with lots of uncertainty/back and forth change/delay. Unclear instructions are given to the execution level, causing stress and anxiety. 2. Work life balance cannot be guaranteed. 3. Impossible to get any promotion/career advancement. Top performers are over used but not recognized with pay increase/benefits. 4.Favouritism and politics is not rare
