Pros

Access to the entire pharma industry

Cons

Ongoing, constant pressure to deliver and recognize revenue on a monthly cycle is a major driver of internal conflicts of interest between groups/departments - internal conflicts directly lead to compromises on quality deliverables, consistent client conflicts and very poor employee morale All work, no life culture - only cares about revenue generation and cost containment - stereotypical example of private equity driven management and leadership Unethical business policies - actively blocks reimbursement of legitimate business/job related expenses onto employees to maintain margins CEO mandated bonus reduction of 30% + in most recent fiscal year - stated reason was company not meeting internal 10%+ yoy EBIDTA growth target - subsequently rewarded senior leadership with stock/option grants + cash bonuses for company meeting/exceeding revenue/growth financial objectives

Pros

The team was great to work with and the general work environment was hard to beat

Cons

It felt like sales and upper management completely dropped the ball with our product. We had what could have been a large success in the market but we were too ignored to really push ourselves towards new customers. Pretty much the whole team was laid off as a result.
