Pros

Benefits are good, that is sadly the only thing I have to offer for this category.

Cons

Mandated every third weekend. Pay incentive to work on 2nd/3rd shift is not a lot compared to other companies(it was only $0.60/hour when I worked there in 2020). Not a lot of PTO and sick time compared to other companies. Breaks are very short. You get three total with the first being 10 minutes, second being 15 minutes, and the third being 10 minutes.

Pros

Diverse work environment Lots of variety in job requirements Decent wages Great company if you know someone. Nepotism here.

Cons

There is a formal training guideline that was never completed. We didn't even finish signing off after 6 months. This is for a basic entry level type position. It's not even a higher level position. The technical requirements for pharma are pretty complex. I finished my part but the follow through fell short for hands on experience. It wasn't important to train me so I felt like it wasn't important for me to be there. It was frustrating receiving directions from people who started on the same day as me. I feel like it was because of nepotism. Nepotism exists at this company. They weren't meeting their training on time and were giving me direction and providing me with training. Overall, the rewards couldn't justify the physical demands on my body. I felt frustrated and left incomplete as the only team member without family/friends connection in my anywhere. How did i get this job? I'm clueless about that. Didn't take criticism very well. Felt attacked by calls for action. Higher stress manufacturing environment.
