Horrible Management

Pros

The Charleston location was beautiful and the area is awesome. Some of the long term employees were very skilled at their jobs, however rarely rewarded for their good deeds.

Cons

Oh my, where to begin. The current management inspires fear and instills poor morale by their simple existence. They are old school, boys club, women chasers who have their favorites and rewards them accordingly. These same people are placed in charge of departments they have no experience in based on their relationship with upper management. The experienced Quality team ran fast and far when this group took over as they were consistently asked to do unethical things. All of HR has been replaced with those who are willing to overlook intimidation, inappropriate behaviors and general HR nightmares. The facility, if run correctly with experienced and appropriate managers, could be a top notch, highly producing facility that would provide an enjoyable work experience.

Pros

Regular employees are the heart of the company. Many fine analysts. Good place for entry level analyst to gain experience.

Cons

No work life balance. Management is hostile, even to those putting in extra time. Nights, weekends holiday required or you will be threatened and penalized.

Thank you for your feedback. Safety is one of the Alcami non-negotiables. We strongly encourage employees to speak with their manager or a member of the Environmental, Health and Safety team, and to actively engage in our SEE card program if they are witness to unsafe practices, or have ideas of how we can improve the safety of our work environment.
