Terrible management

Pros

Benefits are great, 401k, tuition reimbursement, maternity leave

Cons

The company tried to expand too quickly, resulting in hiring poor quality of CRAs and managers. The management team plays favorites and only promote those who can brown nose their way to the top. Others who work endless hours and provide quality work are overlooked because they are not given visibility to management team. You will not be promoted unless your manager allows you to be promoted.

Pros

Ample parking and friendly security staff. Lot of good people who work there. Their jobs pay rate is top of the scale.

Cons

Lot of MAGA supporters who are not shy in expressing their political views. People there also love their GUNS! This facility in on its last leg. They are no producing new product through here and instead, build a new facility in another state. They already started to sell the rights to their drugs and maybe the plant will officially close in next few years.
