Pros
Lots of opportunities, pretty decent salary and benefits. Lots of exceptional people to work with.
Cons
IMS was a fantastic company when I first joined in 2003, but I saw a major downhill spiral in terms of integrity when the company went private and took on new management. They went on an acquisition tear and hired lots of new blood, especially in the business development functions. The company became way too political, with lots of beaurocracy and plenty of sell-outs. I came to find that the more politically savvy you are (i.e. not afraid to step on people and lie to clients), the faster you will get ahead. I watched some of the best employees get squeezed out or laid off. It just wasn't for me and so I chose to move on.
