Pros

Benefits are good. Mobility within the company is possible, but you have to be pals with your manager.

Cons

The "safety culture" is a joke, adopted by the occasional employee at best. GLPs, GMPs, and GDPs are followed only when convenient or if the boss or client is watching. Management is unresponsive and unhelpful.

Pros

The guys you work with are awesome

Cons

Management is the worse you’ll ever have the displeasure of knowing. Work environment is horrendous. No air conditioning in the plant with full PPE on over 100 degrees. Management thinks it’s fine. Batch records should be written in crayon. They have no idea what cGMP even means. Discrimination runs rampant. Sound like a place you want to wrk? I didn’t think so.

Pros

Good benefits and diverse workforce. Open door policy and flexible work hours if you're salaried

Cons

Zero career progression. The only thing that counts here is the number of years you put in, not your work. Unless you're British, then the doors magically open up for you at all levels. They pay below market average and they are aware of it. They keep adding things like paid PTO to total benefits and come up with an overly inflated number in the hopes of keeping people happy. The main issue is that they want to work "lean", which is code for you'll be doing the work of 2 people while the "leadership" team listens to your complaints and does nothing. Literally every single team is understaffed and overworked. Morale is at an all time low. Avoid applying here if you want to have a stress free life.
