Pros

Good kick-start into pharma right out of college Lots of different pharma clients to fluff your resume

Cons

Though they love to tout their intensive training program and 'experienced' professionals, looking back at this company after having left feels like looking back at middle school kids learning algebra while you're in college studying engineering. When I worked for this company, I would often repeat the misconception that you don't actually need or use your engineering knowledge once you start working. I now know this to be entirely false. It's just that the consulting work at Sequence doesn't actually expose its employees to any sort of real engineering work. As a consultant you can expect to: - perform meaningless, repetitive, and mind numbing 'tests' on a regular basis - be encouraged to fudge numbers that don't favor the passing of your validation protocol - check boxes for the sake of documenting things that more competent people have already proven to work. What you should NOT expect when working here: -any sort of engineering design or opportunity for meaningful input to any process that does not include making documentation look pretty - Any work that could not be accomplished by a high school student My advice if you do join: get in, make some connections, and get out fast if you don't want to stagnate in your career

Let's start by saying this is not a typical experience at Sequence. We deeply regret the communication breakdown that led to this level of discontent, as it doesn't reflect our commitment to providing a personalized employee experience. Our focus is on ensuring every team member feels valued while fostering both personal and professional growth. While not an engineering design firm, we are a consultancy specializing in Commissioning, Qualification, and Validation (CQV), offering comprehensive solutions for the life sciences industry. We pride ourselves on supporting a diverse range of projects that provide our consultants with meaningful professional experiences. Our approach involves matching team members with projects that align with their skills and interests, while also offering opportunities to explore different types of work. We understand that some tasks may seem routine, but these assignments are crucial in building a strong professional foundation. The skills developed during these experiences often prove invaluable as consultants progress in their careers. It's important to note that Sequence maintains the highest standards of integrity in all our work, and we do not encourage or condone any misrepresentation of data or results. While individual experiences may vary, many of our consultants find their work at Sequence to be rewarding and instrumental in their professional development. We continuously strive to enhance our training programs and project assignments to ensure they remain relevant and valuable in the ever-evolving landscape of CQV consulting.
