Pros

Excellent benefits: Pension, 401K matching, profit sharing, industry competitive salary, stock performance Culture: Strides at improvement thru employee surveys. Strong values and ethics Career Opportunities: Available if willing to relocate to Illinois. If you are able to play the corporate game, you will succeed here!

Cons

Leadership: Some great managers and some terrible managers Promotion in current position: No set criteria for promotion. Self-promotion and relationship with manager supersedes performance. Promotion to new position: Many are been pre-selected. Networking valued over performance. Work-Life: Technology improvements. Budget and headcount decline = do more with less.

Pros

I learned a lot while working this job. The systems like Veeva and Workfront were difficult to learn at first, but once I got the hang of them it was great. There were a lot of great people working around me that wanted to see me succeed.

Cons

Working as a contract worker had it's cons. At times, it felt like I was a little bit of an afterthought in the company with some superiors because I was not a full time employee. Communication suffered at times as well.
