Pros

The company offers good benefits and job opportunities. The work place in Basel is also quite nice, but it can also be considered too "fleshy" for a pharma company.

Cons

Unfortunately it is a company of double standards, this is in particular true for upper management. It is a large company and you are simply only a number. The turnover of managers is very high You are working in environment of fear - people are afraid to raise their hands ... There is NO work/life balance.
