Good pay and benefits, but dysfunction hampers productivity
Pros
Good pay. Great target bonus to off set that the company doesn't grant equity. Excellent retirement contributions. Flexible time off.
Cons
Dysfunctional organization. People have worked there for 15+ years and don't know the basics of drug development. It was astonishing. Basic GCP and or drug development terminology was foreign to people. You could work there for years and just coast under the radar not learning a thing. There's no growth mindset among employees. Feels more like govt than an industry. There are employees in the same exact role and level for 10+ years. So experience in the organization is lacking. They are stuck doing things that have been outdated in the industry. And no one takes ownership. It's disturbing to see just how little you need to know to get by and no one will question it. If something goes wrong just blame the cro and the chaos within the organization continues.
