Pros

401k matching is better than average in the pharma industry

Cons

This company has an abnormal work environment, e.g. employees spied on each other. Management are clueless and incompetent and treats talents very badly. As a result, turnover rates are high. There is no professional growth within the company since the management is so insecure about their own positions and power. I would not recommend this company unless you are absolutely desperate for a job in the Chicago area.
