Pros

Cons

- Extremely, extremely busy days - Too much reliance on others in accomplishing tasks (although individual contributors can do a lot of good work on their own as well)

Pros

Biogen IDEC is working towards bettering the lives of people with debilitating illness rather than just looking for "Me Too" drugs. The compensation is very competitive and the 6% 401k matching is an industry best. Very interested in employee retention and upward mobility.

Cons

Haven't worked in the position long enough to properly evaluate cons for the company. They require me to show up for work if I want to get paid.
