Pros
Some interesting pockets of science and some good projects. Experience can be great or not great depending on if you find the right people.
Cons
People management skills are not valued or developed in line managers. In supposedly global functions (stats, clinpharm, bioscience), the different sites operate as separate units and your experience is entirely influenced by your direct manager. Machine learning and big data are "in" with lots of slides but can't see much progress. IT networking, software and data management infrastructure is far behind peers - cannot be agile and data driven when it takes months to access data.
