Pros

Good benefits, nice fitness center, hassle-free parking, generally good people

Cons

It is become quite obvious in my long tenure at Perrigo that unless you have been selected in advance by the powers that be, you will never be given true opportunities to move up and are not adequately compensated for the consistent hard work and dedication that you give. There is too much inconsistency between roles/tasks, job titles, and pay structure. Additionally, the last few years have been very difficult with the uncertainties of being acquired, reorganization, and now upcoming layoffs.

Pros

Good pay. Average benefits that continue to be cut. Flexible schedule/opportunity to work from home in some departments.

Cons

Company prides itself on its five pillars but it only gives lip service to them. If you are looking for a company that rewards employees for their performance and holds people accountable to do their jobs, this is definitely not the company for you! The separation between performers and non-performers on your performance/merit review is 1/2-1% increase. Diversity program is another area that is lacking and only lip service is given too. This is not a program that upper management believes in or devotes resources towards. Lots of programs get started but aren't sustainable because of limited resources or budgets an example is training and development. Global company that hasn't spent money to put systems in place to lay the foundation to be truly successful. This company has more Director/VP level positions than is warranted.
