I too, think you should take the job. I do not agree with animal testing for cosemetics and such, but for medical purposes there often is not another way.

I also have recently been faced with this dilemna. I have a job that love the people I work with, but not usch much those I work for. It is a small company, owned by 3 men, all 63 and up, and there is no oppertunity atall for advancement (I'ma chemist). A former co-worker called and said the company she now works for (also a pharmaceutical company) is hiring and they wouldlike me to submit a resume. I know they do animal tesing, but she assured me their department does not do it...but it would still be in the same building. I decide to go ahead and submitt, becuase the company pays better, has better benefits, and advnacement oppertunites... as of now I have heard nothing fromthem, and if I don't fine. If I do, maybe I could use this as leverage to get a better raise where I'm at now. Only time will tell....

Good luck Kristen!!!
