Vertex Pharmaceuticals reviews

Sometimes, despite your trying to prove yourself, your position is not heard as thoughtfully as you might hope for. You try hard, you put a lot of effort in, and sometimes, you're just met with silence, lack of approval, or ignored. Morale could be a lot better. The downside of working in a pharmaceutical environment is that drug candidates take years and years and years to get to the market. And throughtout that process, the FDA can easily pull the plug on a candidate. You invest a lot of time and effort -- and with one bad clinical trial, all that work disappears.

The lack of communication between middle management and the 'grunts' is amazing! People were assigned new job titles that often appeared to be a demotion w/o any discussion or warning. Often sensitive information regarding personnel was presented during department meetings w/o any warning to the individual(s) effected.
