Pros

Biopharmaceutical plant located in the North of Singapore, very accessible to main island. Salary is fairly decent, much better that other biopharmaceutical companies at Tuas.

Cons

Limited products and facing patent cliff. Competitors for substitute taking up market shares of Factor VIII e.g Hemlibra. Product margin dropping and technology is old. Limited talents, too many mediocre managers, promoted based on long service and loyalty. For a small plant it doesn't create too much of value but waste.

Pros

Great culture and opportunity to work alongside brilliant people. Work life balance is what you make it. Good opportunity to explore other areas and expand skills.

Cons

Things seem to get bottlenecked and there tends to be unclear expectations and lack of ability to use the skills you develop in new roles. Really hard to move up internally
