Pros

Constantly changing big company that gives some great experience, specially in sales. Clear professional progression, good training programs and great for the resume.

Cons

Work can get repetitive and due to the nature of the pharma industry, jobs may not always be safe. I joined right after a merger, and getting the company aligned with the new products and staff was difficult.
