Systems Business Analyst

"Great pay for never hearing from a manager. I had to basically create my own job and manage myself from day 1. The company is so large it is hard to know everything and the entire organization uses the web. I had to navigate and negotiate my way past the security desk at Pfizer and Astrazaneca. No help on getting a badge or anything."
