Pros

Good Medical benefits and the site is located in a great area. Suggestions for problems can be seen by management . Appreciation for Birthdays.

Cons

The morale at the site is very low. Negativity is spread everyday. In order to change this, it has to be struck at the head or heart or the source, which is Management. Our concerns are voiced everyday. The number 1 concern at the site is promoting within your own department and then opening the door for outsiders. When an employee wants to leave please let that happen and give an opportunity for others to grab this opportunity to move up. We need moral support from management. The overall pay at the site is very low. When employees perform well, promote and pay. When employees offer real change and positive effects, promote and pay. When employees put in long hours and allow the company to make most of it’s profit for the year in 1 month, promote and pay. This is the greatest morale you can give to the employees. Others will follow in line and want to do the best they can do.

Bachem is a contract manufacturing organization. As a result, the operations schedule is dynamic and subject to changes to meet the needs of Bachem’s customers. Bachem strives to balance the needs of customers and employees, and appreciates and thanks employees for their flexibility when demands and priorities change. It is recognized that communication within the organization is inconsistent and improvement is a current focus of management.
