Pros

Great mindset to conduct high-quality research, notably within the Life Sciences Collaboration programme which sets to promote cross-disciplinary work and lower silos.

Cons

I found it hard to grow within the company. In all fairness it could be because of the difficult period the company - specially the Crop Science division - is facing.
