Pros

Good place to start off as a university graduate. Plenty of exposure to various different analytical techniques and project management. Flexible working hours

Cons

Extreme instances of favouritism and overall a toxic environment especially what was formally known as the small molecules department. Blatant favouritism is rampant. Promotions are not based on ability or performance but on friendships and if you are liked by management.
