Pros

Flexibility is fantastic. I've always been able to work from home whenever required. Salary. Everyone would love to earn more but definitely above average for the area and market rate for the type of work. It really is one of the friendliest places to be, I genuinely enjoy going to work as I actually feel I'm making a difference.

Cons

Senior management seem to chop and change the grand vision. This also means goalposts keep changing as well. They also seem to focus on issues that should be managed by SME's. There is also far too much reliance on contractors for project delivery. Should really focus on building a proper projects team of staff members who don't just cut and run at any moment. There also seems to a lot of favouritism where only the preselected people are destined for higher office. This is only strengthened when you see people leaving "to explore opportunities outside of the company" with no prior warning.

Pros

The recruiter that I worked with was wonderful and very in tuned with my career goals and the type of team I wanted to be a part of. He answered all of my questions in a timely manner and was transparent on which roles he felt would be a good match based on the leadership, team, and career aspirations.

Cons

I did not have any cons related to my experience.

Pros

None, I cannot think of one pro.

Cons

The worst experience in my 15 plus career in pharma. The managers are horrible, they work you to death and show zero appreciation. I was so thankful I was a temp, as I would never have wanted to be a full time after what I experienced. It's basically a hot mess of bullying by managers and the Sr. Director's have poor SVPs they report into so it makes sense they management style is horrid.
