Bachem reviews

well, where do I start? lack of leadership from Upper Management results in horrible hours and extremely long days. when things go wrong, they like to blame everyone except for themselves for the delay. Project managers are clueless and promise insane due dates to the customers.

Not ready to grow. Company isn't interested in making a faster and more efficient process. When an idea is presented to them it's many times ignored and disregarded. For example automating the upstream process for less manual labor, upgrading equipment to meet our demands, spending more time in validation to ensure safety, integrity, strength, purity, and quality of the product as well as reduction of cross contamination. Not a safe area to work. Waste is left in the parking lots in drums to sit in the heat (search Bachem EPA for more info). Vista has concrete in their emergency shower drain lines. This insures if an emergency shower is pulled all people in the area are contaminated with the chemical. Work ethic in many departments is very poor. IT takes more than 4 weeks to issue a new computer. Software needs also take this long. QA is very easy to persuade to do what you want. Skill sets here are non existent. People who are at the top are there because they have been at the company for a long time and not because they are knowledgeable.
