Pros

Shift pattern and No weekends

Cons

Process equipment constantly breaking down and nothing getting done. Too many pointless 'meetings'. Lots of talking but not enough action. Using whiteboards and big sheets of paper for trackers. Way way behind other pharma companies in terms of digitalisation. Training is subpar. Technologists who haven't completed their own training are left to train new hires

Pros

The recruiter that I worked with was wonderful and very in tuned with my career goals and the type of team I wanted to be a part of. He answered all of my questions in a timely manner and was transparent on which roles he felt would be a good match based on the leadership, team, and career aspirations.

Cons

I did not have any cons related to my experience.

Pros

None, I cannot think of one pro.

Cons

The worst experience in my 15 plus career in pharma. The managers are horrible, they work you to death and show zero appreciation. I was so thankful I was a temp, as I would never have wanted to be a full time after what I experienced. It's basically a hot mess of bullying by managers and the Sr. Director's have poor SVPs they report into so it makes sense they management style is horrid.
