After a stressful and unpleasant year getting to this point, I am anticipating that I will be cut loose from R&D shortly (either this year or the next). I want to get back to finding new drugs. Is Alcon the smart move?
If you want to find new drugs - and that too in a pleasant environment - Alcon should rank LAST on your list. This is a shell of a company in terms of talent and expertise that it used to be pre-Novartis. Let us not even talk management.
