Pros

Incredibly smart, talented, and nice colleagues. Opportunity to advance scientific understanding and knowledge through scholarly publishing. Some flexibility in work schedule. Generous PTO.

Cons

Recently adopted assembly line approach means less opportunity for variety and learning new skills, and high volumes of more repetitive tasks. Doing more with fewer workers means longer hours for many.

Pros

- Generally good work-life balance; minimal overtime expected. - Products are relatively simple, which allows new joiners to pick things up quickly. - A few genuinely supportive and kind colleagues. - Can be a decent option for those looking for a stable, low-pressure role without strong career ambitions.

Cons

Limited career growth: Many employees have spent their entire careers here, resulting in siloed thinking and a lack of innovation. Development opportunities are scarce, and in hindsight, this role set back my career progression. Declining industry: The business remains reliant on shrinking markets. Digital and AI efforts lack traction. Frequent retrenchments, hiring/travel freezes, and now salary increment freezes reflect deeper issues. Unrealistic sales targets persist despite consistently missed goals which makes no sense. Weak leadership: Global leaders avoid addressing critical concerns, while local leadership lacks competency and strategic clarity. Meetings often feel like interrogations, and can feel manipulative. High attrition and low morale are the result, yet accountability is absent.
