      Great MBA marketing summer internship

      Pros

      A very ethical company that tries hard to target grevious illness when developing therapies. I got a very meaty summer project and full access to everyone at the company. People were open and friendly and very willing to help out someone with virtually no science background. Great experience.

      Cons

      It's located in Thousand Oaks, CA. It is a very data driven company and used to building consensus before moving forward on decisions. Occasionally there is a bit of information overload and you spend a lot of time vetting all your ideas/projects through other people.

      Okay, but not great company to work for.

      Pros

      Great benefits package. The campus is beautiful. Thousand Oaks is a nice city to raise a family. The intern program is really developed and comes with a lot of perks; e.g. paid apartments, lunch and learns with executives, relocation reimbursement, etc.

      Cons

      The company grew too fast and having trouble adapting. Many processes are inefficient and upper management relunctant to change. The entry level salaries are also really low compared to other biotech/pharm companies. Possible to move up vertically, but unlikely to move around laterally.
