Pros

Good compensation and benefits thanks to stock-options, good working life/balance, not much pressure, good balance men/women up to director level

Cons

Strategy is cash cow. No innovation anymore, no products in the pipeline except fake projects aimed at making associates feel they can stay. No way to evolve in the organization without growth or new projects. All people questioning the lack of future or asking for strategy are quietly pushed out. President perceived by most as not very smart; chosen for the role as Novartis management in Basel wanted a quiet "leader". Sheep behavior is rewarded, including at VP level.
