Great Place to work until bought by Sun

Pros

Everything. In the Jacksonville, FL location the people where nice and knowledgeable. Nobody shirked their duties. The atmosphere was excellent.

Cons

After Ranbaxy was purchased by Sun the place went down hill. You couldn't pay me enough to work for Sun Pharmaceuticals. The people are backstabbing and I've never worked with a less knowledgeable group of people.

Pros

Very good exposure to drug discovery and development apart from huge volume of generic drugs. The drug discovery and development process is very well organized with Disovery working groups (DWG) and Project working groups (PWG). Each department can nominate few members to each of the DWG & PWGs. The focus is clear, unlike some other pharma companies in India. They have a review meeting once in 6 months to review the progress of each molecule. Ideal for research work too as the company spends money to get quality work done.

Cons

Management has to be more transparent and information should percolate down to all the members of the team. And the balance between personal and professional life does not exist at all. There are also much more effective ways to get things done rather than bullying and threatening employees. And stop networking and investigating where people move. Keep them happy while they are with you and people will never think of moving out. Favouritism is also a big headache.

Pros

could be an upcoming generic pharma company. They need a overhaul of hiring practice. They do have some very dedicated people. They treat their employees well with regards to salary and benefits.

Cons

Company has a practice of hiring individuals of India. The level of comfort with english and even their qualification is in question. Management is very secretive and has adopted the India culture of groups and has brought it to the US offices. Management is also primarily of India nationality. Also the treatment of women (Indian and Non Indian) is also questionable.
