Horrible Leaders - Senior Analyst West Pharmaceutical Services Employee Review

Pros

Coworkers are nice and have good ideas

Cons

Sr. Leadership only cares about themselves. The rules do not apply to them but they apply to you. They are so out of touch with the employee population and continue to think the employees are the problem not themselves. Favoritism is all that matters, leaders are two-faced, they ask for feedback and then get mad at you for your feedback. Sr leaders tell everyone how busy they are all the time and how they have no time to excuse their inability to pay attention to anything.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are disappointed to learn of your perception of management. Employee satisfaction is very important to us and our leadership team is held accountable for high-performance standards, including team member engagement. We strongly encourage any team member who feels this is not the way we are operating to immediately reach out to any member of leadership or Human Resources. to share their concerns. All team members also have access to the Integrity Helpline where they can report their concerns anonymously if they choose. Finally, we also promote two-way communication through a number of small and large group gatherings, to give team members the opportunity to ask questions or raise concerns to our Executive Leadership team. As a current team member, we encourage you to use these channels to share your feedback. If you would like to discuss your concerns further, please don’t hesitate to contact me directly. Annette Favorite Senior Vice President & Chief Human Resources Officer

Pros

• Interview process was personal, thoughtful, and conversational — I always felt like a human being, not an application. • Leadership and Talent Acquisition were transparent and respectful throughout. • The people here genuinely care about the work and one another. • Many employees have been with West for 15, 20, even 30+ years, which speaks volumes about culture and stability. • Work is meaningful — West designs and manufactures drug containment and delivery systems that help medications reach patients safely. • Onboarding has been organized and welcoming, with support at every step.

Cons

Systems and digital tools are in transition (which is normal for a growing organization).
