Curia reviews

Where to start? I regularly worked 55-60 hour weeks, 7am to at least 5pm (frequently later) during the week, often coming in at weekends (I would estimate I worked about 30% of my weekends). On at least three occasions I had to work 24 hours straight. Eventually I was burned out. When business tanked during 2009 I was let go, and in an extremely unpleasant manner. Compensation was not, in my opinion, commensurate with the effort I put into the job. The management philosophy of the place was definitely much more stick than carrot. The caliber of most of the management there was nothing short of abysmal.

In my opinion the LakePharma acquisition was a mistake and management never really understood what they were buying. In September 2021 6 sites and 235 employees joined but 2.5 years later only 2 sites remain open with maybe 75 people. This extreme cost cutting means no investment in innovation or instrumentation and most work is being done by hand. High prices, increasing competition, and a lack of leadership have resulted in an underperforming business. For a 3300+ person company the marketing department is a joke HIGH TURNOVER in all departments = HUGE RED FLAG Private Equity owners = only care about profits and will likely close or sell off more sites this year Talk with some former employees before accepting a job
