Pros

If you are career oriented, you can make a lot of money at this company. The opportunties are endless to those who have put in their sweat equity.

Cons

If you are a family oriented person, beware! Most people live on their blackberries 24/7 and may expect you to do the same. If you chose not to follow the other sheep, you will be left in the dust or unemployed.

Pros

Over my tenure, I had the opportunity to work alongside highly talented and mission-driven colleagues dedicated to improving patient outcomes. The organization provided exposure to cross-functional collaboration, leadership development opportunities, and meaningful work supporting healthcare providers, patients, and community stakeholders. I appreciated the company's commitment to innovation, professional growth, and serving patients through scientific advancement.

Cons

Like many large organizations, priorities and organizational structures evolved over time, which occasionally created uncertainty and changes in responsibilities. Decision-making processes could sometimes be complex due to the size of the organization, and navigating multiple layers of stakeholders occasionally impacted speed and execution.
