Pros

You really are exposed to multiple areas within the company. The environment is fast-paced and people who are willing to go above and beyond will find themselves with plenty of opportunity for working on different types of projects. There are different cultures between departments (however, the one I work in is pretty drama-free).

Cons

Before it was acquired, ImClone was a good-ole-boys club. That has good and bad parts to it. The good part is that you can get a lot done with less red-tape. However, since being acquired, red-tape and bureaucracy have really crept in. There are some remnants of senior management from the old ImClone who really should move on - they were part of the "club" and have trouble managing at this level.

Pros

For the most part the line managers and grunts are fun to work with and good people who really want to take initiative and get work done. As such, these lower level truly believe that the goals of the company with respect to cancer care are noble and work diligently to accomplish those goals. Central Jersey location in the middle of Pharma land of NJ. Prior to Lilly acquisition, low levels of bureaucracy if you want to take an initiative and run with it.

Cons

The company will always have the taint of corruption in its blood. There was never a true cleansing and there are still employees that should have lost their jobs for the insider trading scandal but somehow remain. It seems to attract leadership that is either incompetent or unprincipled or in the worst case both. The current leadership acts as if they have the best interest of the employees in their heart, but in reality could care less about the regular employee and are more concerned about the hand chosen pets who manage up but treat their co-workers with disrespect. Many managers are the "B" or "C" team corporate escapees. Watch out for the stealth lay-offs that are still occurring.
