Pros

The starting salaries are OK but cost of living adjustments are minimal. Everyone starts with 3 weeks vacation.

Cons

They have very little regard for experience or expertise, especially in the Life Science & Technologies division. Under the direction of Kevin Hrusovsky, they are closing entire sites and getting rid of years of experience around profitable product lines.
