    Dislikes

    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.

    only learning i liked about Novartis.

    Dislikes

    ... even bother to look after employee complains. absolutely extinct department. 7. managers will call personally and ask employees to work on saturday and sundays without any extra pay. 8. they retaliate against external/ contractual employee if not listening to them. 9. raising against management with valid issues is not taken seriously. Overall -SCM is the worst department to work.

    Nothing much only salary is on time as per payroll calendar.

    Dislikes

    Late promotion cycles. Promotion and salary hikes are given to people closer to management. Favouritism to department managers play key role here in development
