Pros
The compensation and benefits are decent
Cons
I, and the majority of my coworkers at my site, was recently laid off from their infectious diseases department as part of the Janssen pharmaceutical unit and it has been such a blessing to no longer work for this company. They wax poetic at every meeting about adhering to their values and caring for their patients and employees, but those "values" have always been cast aside for the sake of profit margins and stakeholders. What "healthcare" company lays off its entire infectious diseases department right on the heels of a global pandemic? Their HR system is an absolute nightmare to deal with, work-life balance is minimal (I would regularly be receiving emails at midnight from people in my own time zone), and we were so clearly cogs in a machine. Whenever upper management would come to visit the site, we were required to schedule lab work to make us look "busy and productive", so the millionaires could watch us make money for them. It's a company entirely concerned with profit and optics. It is so massive and poorly managed that every little process is arduous and covered in red tape and corporate rules. You cannot contribute to a company that large as an individual; it was a very erasing and demoralizing experience. Working there made me consider abandoning my career in the sciences entirely.
