Pros

Sense of purpose in working for a company that develops medicines that help people, opportunities to develop different skills, good benefits, enjoy co-workers who for the most part are motivated and engaged in their jobs.

Cons

Very conservative culture that doesn't encourage risk-taking, don't think management overall has progressive flexible work-life policies, management seems out of touch with needs and desires of workforce, technology not cutting-edge.

Great compensation and low morale.

Pros

Compensation! It is a big company and has name recognition. Palo Alto has a really nice campus.

Cons

Unfair/unbalance workload (Depends on the group you are in). Do not have realistic timelines on projects. People are expected to work overtime all the time. At the same time, some other group has no timeline and layback. People get penalized for working hard while some people are getting free rides all the time.
