      Pros

      Contract business. Interact with a multitude of clients. No project is exactly the same. Gain experience working with unique equipment and products.

      Cons

      Formerly Hyaluron Inc. A small company that suffered from an extremely high turnover rate. Suffers from Brain Drain. The talent leaves while the mediocre stay. Young staff and new employees rarely have any previous knowledge of the contract or aseptic filling business. Long timers tend to have the cushiest jobs. The prominent staff find it difficult to advance or change departments.

      You'd have to be really desperate to want to work there

      Pros

      The people who actually do the work there (ie the scientists, technicians and lab aides) are hard working (they have to be otherwise they get fired!), dedicated and talented (those who haven't been laid off in the most recent round of "payroll adjustment" that is). You get to work on a wide variety of different chemistry projects, and you'll certainly never be bored.

      Cons

      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.

      AMRI not recommended

      Pros

      The most positive reason to work at AMRI is that the products made at AMRI positively affect lives. You can feel good about the impact of your work.

      Cons

      Management is terrible at AMRI. They do not care about the morale of the employees. They do not reward employees for good work.
