Pros

GROW department leadership is solid. Coworkers support one another towards a common goal. Process improvements and initiatives actually add value and are well thought out. People are treated like people, and there is reasonable flexibility.

Cons

I'm concerned about senior leadership. The vision for the company is clear, but there is no planning. Fire drills and urgent-now not urgent work is common. I've been at other fast-paced pharmas where it's not this chaotic. Senior leadership doesn't support or go to bat for their employees, instead pushing down pressure and demands when they can't make up their minds or plan appropriately. Strategy - what strategy?

Thank you for the feedback. It’s great to know that PTC colleagues support each other, which makes our culture special and creates our PTC family atmosphere. It is also good to hear that the many initiatives within GROW have made a positive impact. As you know, the work PTC does in the rare disease space often places the science, regulatory, and business strategies in new territories with limited precedence. This is exciting, but it also means the company must be nimble so to rapidly address new information as it arises within ever changing environments. We understand that this can result in urgent work & projects at times. However, it is our goal to prioritize and balance workloads. We are open to suggestions from employees when they see an opportunity to be “ever better.” They should feel comfortable sharing ideas, feedback and suggestions with our leadership team.
