Pros
Pros: • Good work-life balance – Flexible timings and manageable workload allow a healthy personal-professional life. • Encouraging shift toward in-house development – The company has started hiring internal Oracle APEX front-end developers to reduce dependency on external vendors like HCL and Cognizant. • Opportunity to take ownership – You can fill the gap between designers and developers by proposing UI/UX improvements, building POCs, and guiding implementation. • Supportive management – While not deeply technical, the managers are approachable, open to suggestions, and give developers autonomy in decision-making.
Cons
Cons: • Limited technical maturity – As a pharma-focused company, technology is not the core strength. Most stakeholders come from medical backgrounds, making it difficult to align them with modern development workflows. • Communication gaps with non-technical stakeholders – Often challenging to explain technical constraints or solutions to teams that lack software development understanding. • Reliance on external vendors still exists – Some development is still outsourced, which can make project coordination and delivery timelines more complex. • Slow to adopt cutting-edge tools – The tech stack isn’t always up-to-date, and innovation may feel restricted at times.
