      Pros

      None Coffee in individual packets (that are bad for the environment)

      Cons

      If you don't want to see your kids or partner, or have any life outside of work, this is the place for you. High stress where you will be treated like a tool, totally instrumentalized to make money for the company without ever seeing your supposed bonus. Management is hugely insensitive. The salesforce is totally disconnected from the reality of the people working in the organization, which is a problem because they sell contracts that the company can barely deliver on because it is voluntarily under-resourced or it can't recruit people. Result: money for the sales team and the owners and floor employees that are leaving due too much pressure to deliver. But if that's your thing, go for it.

      Pros

      I worked at IC Axon in the content department for a couple of years and loved working there. The directors and editors are extremely personable, intelligent, and flexible. They always expressed appreciation when something was done well, and recognized someone's talents and strengths. The environment was challenging intellectually, but allowed for work–life balance. I found that management was always willing to work with the employee, whether it be additional coaching, attaining professional goals, or accommodating requests for vacation.

      Cons

      I would recommend working here.

      Pros

      Great colleagues that are very supportive of each other, which makes a huge difference. The location is good, downtown/plateau. It's also a good place to start working for a first/second job, you learn a lot about the pharma industry and can make good connections. The processes and training for microsoft and other applications and file saving standards is valuable.

      Cons

      A lot. There is no consideration of employees personal lives, people are expected to consistently work evenings, weekends, and many stat holidays. Scheduling vacation is a huge nightmare, and people are often obliged to cancel their vacations if a big project comes up. Everyone is overwhelmed, it is a very unhealthy working environment that is conducive to poor mental health. Clients are often rude and treat employees badly, and management does nothing to support employees when this happens. The CEO has a huge temper and frequently yells at employees, in front of other employees and often clients (so unprofessional). So many people burn out, the turnover is far too high, way too much work, employees are only appreciated with fake empty words, low salary. HR is 1 person who does not care about employees and has very strong reactions when an issue is brought forth that is quite unprofessional.
