Work life balance is good for most of the teams. Good perks like pat leave is 6month, relaxed leave policy.
No scope to learn something new or ground breaking. Pay is below industry standards. Every 2-3 years they keep changing the process or team structures.

Great learning platform with lots of policies to be learnt and followed. Novartis is one of the best organisation to work with, people with Novartis are very intelligent and supportive, I feel, if anyone wish to learn business acumen and moral responsibility together they should work in Novartis for onces.
Cons: The pharmaceutical industry can be highly regulated, and employees at Novartis may face a complex and sometimes challenging regulatory environment. Like many large corporations, Novartis has a complex organizational structure, which may lead to bureaucratic processes and slow decision-making.

Unbossed, trust, less politics, good career option outside India, customer engagement
In-line Promotion is very difficult after Manager position, Next role promotion through Assessment centres are illogical. Year end increment have been on lesser side, less feedbacks are provided

The culture is very bad, I love the company's principles but these are not followed at the root level. Pathetic managers who are self centered and don't really mentor. Professional behavior is no where visible in the team. They make you loose your confidence in yourself.

Excellent work culture promoting growth and development of expertise in particular area.
People once worked in Novartis are habituated with working to confined tasks and can't explore work beyond comfort zone. Outside company culture can be disaster for the people associated for long term with Novartis. Once company cuts down the head count, difficult to get another job, due to confined work area knowledge and exposure.

The worst part within Novartis is the "Role Impact". Once your role is impacted, the company will kick you out without any redeployement opportunity.

working with Novartis has been a worst experience. There is no job security and the employess are fired on the name of Business Impact or Role Impact. The company does not care about the job security of anyone.

1. Interview process is horrible. Lots of candidates who give interview’s don't hear back even after clearing all the rounds of interview as they are not willing to provide even a basic 20-30% hike. 2. Waste of time to give interview especially in the team ‘Integrated Insights’. I referred two candidates there. These candidates cleared 3 technical interviews but didn’t hear back after HR rounds 3. Appraisals are not at par...Read More

People work in a frear ful work enviornment. Perception based culture. Colleagues do not trust each other. Internal office politics is at its peack. Management has no vision for employees. Management lies on the face. Performance apprisal is based on word of mouth. Extreme favoritism can be seen everywhere. Hire & fire policy. Lack of opertuinity to grow internally. Follows old school methods to perform basic jobs. Please do not join if you are not a CA or highly qualified. Better you look for other opertuinities. Trust me I am a people manager here I looking to get out of this toxic enviornment....Read More
