Pros
  1. Good facilities:

    • Free food
    • Free cab
    • Year-end gift
    • Team outings
    • Fun activities
  2. Some really good people to work with. They are good both technically and behaviorally.

  3. Good learning for the first few months after you join.

  4. Good salary.

  5. Work-life balance (depends on team).

Cons
  1. No work-life balance (depends).
  2. Some very arrogant people who have no respect for others.
  3. Too much politics/favoritism. If you are somebody's favorite, you will get good work, good visibility, and a good hike.
  4. More than the quality of work, what matters is:
    • If you can respond to Slack messages at night (very important) just to show you are online.
    • Your interaction with senior folks like senior managers, managers, or architects, even if you are not reporting to them directly (just to suck up).
  5. After a few months of work, there isn't much to learn; it's the same repetitive work.
  6. Forced bell curve.
  7. A lot of blame game.

My advice: If you are a candidate who feels your work should matter the most, don't join the Pharmacy team. But if you are a person for whom other things matter more, then welcome aboard.
