Pros

Smart, innovative and creative people work(ed) here but any attempts at change are immediately hampered by middle management that simply don't understand the business or are threatened by new approaches.

Cons

Huge potential to exploit revenue streams not directly tied to declining Pharma dollars However, the recruitment of an "industry insider" CEO does not bode well for any approach other than that of doubling down on previous bad bets.. Employee morale is abysmal. Anyone who has an opportunity to leave (ie: the most talented employess) has left or has one foot out the door. By Q2 2013 this company will be full of mediocre resources at best. Actually heard an executive quote "content is king" in a recent meeting. What year are they operating in? Toxic culture that rewards managing up rather than managing the business.

We weren't a good fit

Pros

Good name recognition, great for resume decent benefits some degree of schedule flexibility some departments recognize morale is poor and make efforts to improve it

Cons

We were NOT a good cultural fit. They're supposed to be a leader in my particular field, but I saw nothing that was cutting edge, and, in fact, some practices were questionable Management was capricious and bizarre, accepting poor content development from some employees but not from others This is not a place for creative people, and if you're in the 'in crowd,' you know what's going on and what's expected. If you're not in this crowd, you'll never know the real deal.
