Pros

The Campus was fabulous. Their were many resources available to get work / project done with many areas of expertise. Most folks were more than reasonable to work with. Company seemed to attempt to focus on long term health of company. Benefits were pretty good, though not as good as Syntex.

Cons

You felt like a pawn in a big chess game. You could see decisions being made from very high up that made no financial / strategic sense at the local site. No company stock purchase plan.
