Pros

Free Vitamin Water, bottled water, and sometimes fruit. Decent pay and benefits. You only have to work 6 days per week usually

Cons

Unrealistic expectations, no work-life balance, no processes or systems in place. Crazy pressure and competitiveness… No trust by management – no empowerment, extreme micro-management starting at the top. Rule by intimidation and fear. Very negative culture, that starts at the top...first question management asks is – who is to blame? Blame game and no collaboration type of culture. Very high turnover – some voluntary and some not…Many people fired. People get burned out and quit or get fired, so either way a short-term type position. Also title inflation to get people in – everyone gets promoted to come to Sandoz. …then they work you 80 hrs/week, so it’s actually less expensive then hiring 2 people. Just to re-emphasize – NO WORK LIKE BALANCE …and combine that with the commute on Route 1…. You've been warned...
