"I've worked for Novartis Vaccines for almost a year and a half now. I joined the company in interesting times when they announced the company was for sale. Now, the company is sold to GSK and the company is gradually transitioning. I've had a great experience working for this company and with everyone here. This company indulges in good science and practices ethics in research. I would recommend applying to the new Novartis Vaccines (GSK vaccines) as the company might change but the people will not."
