Pros

Good benefits being under Novartis!

Cons

No work and family balance. No recognition for hard work and loyalty towards the company. Management and HR are closely intertwined with one another. Poor management. It's not what you know, it's who you know. Too much favoritism and NO ROOM for advancement. A very bad work environment. Supervisors and Lead Technicians doesn't even have a four year degree. That in a nutshell should tell you something about the poor leadership in the company. No confidentiality within the organization. Supervisors discloses information with subordinates.
