Pros

Holiday shutdown (which management threatened to cancel this past year)

Cons

Everything else: They have a threatening/intimating/hostile management style, demand overtime, will not provide job training(i was once told to take a community college class out if pocket), You must use your personal cell phone for business calls. Employee reviews are a joke, HR will rewrite them based off how they're feeling that day. Annual bonus is a $20 coupon for a turkey. They will do anything to save a nickel at the expense of the employees. Health plan has changed EVERY year. It is a good ole boys club, veteran employees are lazy and not open to change. These people cause problems again and again with no reprimand. Overall attitude is very negative and depressing, not sustainable.

Pros

Many opportunities for advancement and on-the-job learning. Benefits are fantastic with a 9% total 401K match, great health insurance with an employer HSA match, education assistance, and more. People are really wonderful, and management cares about employee well-being. The company is growing and has been moving in positive directions in my time there. Change is slow, but there are always changes in progress, so it feels like something new is happening all the time. I love my job and my team is incredible. I recommend Tolmar to anyone who asks me about it.

Cons

Production and workflows can be a little disorganized, with last-minute changes. The pay is competitive for Colorado, but low compared to bigger pharma hubs for a lot of positions. Company development is slow (as is true much of the time in pharma). Some positions are repetitive and labor-intensive, and have high turnover that makes work challenging for people that stay on.

Pros

Career devlopment is a huge plus with this company. There is a lot of opportunities to learn new things and develop skills that will serve you well in the pharma spaceq Pay and benefits are also pretty solid.

Cons

Management was inexperienced and consistently difficult to work with within all departments. Good management is a rarity in this company. Manufacturing scheduling and processes were all over the place and often delayed. All essential departments were consistently under staffed and turnover was high. The expectations around work output were unrealistic and exhausting. Everything is urgent and high priority, and they expect you to compensate for poor scheduling and poor retention rates.
