Pros

I did not feel overworked

Cons

They're a client based CDMO and only had one working client for the entirety of 2019. They will hire you under a non-lab-related job title and then totally disregard EVERY SINGLE bullet point of the job description and toss you in a lab to make buffers and move boxes around for a few months or do all things completely unrelated to the job you were hired for even if you are 100% qualified for what you were hired for. They will scapegoat and fire any manager that does not fit into the cult group of a handful or so of the senior leadership team (SLT) without allowing any sort of diversity to flourish and stomping out any opinion that is not a hellish reverberating echo of the stagnant SLT minds. They will hire and fire a VP level manager within a month, without giving this person a chance to articulate any business vision. How can you evaluate the performance of a VP in a month? Senior managers will reproach people in the hall for being too loud if they laugh loudly. Personalities of members of management resemble those of used car salesmen in which slight of hand is valued infinitely more than any level of business or scientific skill. At my departure there was not one single PhD level person in the entire ~120 person facility in Milford, even though there are manufacturing and SCIENTIFIC elements to this institution. The turnover is very high and the only people that end up staying are the ones beaten down enough to be OK with the current order and not look for a better job. The company looks like it's in hiring mode but most of the positions are just filling for the mass exodus currently happening there.

Pros

The pay was pretty good.

Cons

Senior Leadership needs complete revamping. I resigned from the company ~ 4 months ago. Many of us, most who are no longer with the company, made multiple complaints about my former manager. However, our words "fell on deaf ears". Ultimately, she ended up getting people fired, forcing us to leave or just regularly harassing everyone on and off the QC team. News Break... After all this was allowed to happen, by Senior Leadership, it was communicated that my former manager no longer has ANY of her, at one time, 12 directs reports. They have either been fired, left due to her constant rudeness or now report to other managers. Shaking my head.....

Pros

No pros for working here, just endless OT but money is not worth it

Cons

Stress levels sent me to the emergency room multiple times. Management was aware of the conditions we were working under and nothing was done about it, even though there were MANY meetings about it.
