Your experience generally varies. Novartis as a company is doing some really cool things in Innovative medicines and data science. With the direction the company is taking, there are some really data savvy teams that have been formed with mainly external hires and IMHO, the results are mixed where individuals are concerned. So, overall lots of positives but your mileage varies based on the person you are interacting with.

What group?

I interviewed for an AD role within planning group and I was almost about to hang up while chatting with the hiring manager. I have never seen such an obnoxious person work for a good firm. But the sample size is small here

Hi Guys,
I have been assigned to a Unbillable Project, they are building one app and have recruited people from the talent pool. The project is not registered in GLOW. And they are calling it as Voluntary Contribution type project for studio. Is this what they call Internal Project in

Will there be any impact if I don't perform as per their expectations?
Will it be of any benefit to me if work in voluntary project? Will HR recognize this project contribution as valid work?
