Pros

Good vacation if you stay long enough, company shut down for Christmas. Good benefits.

Cons

Fire drill after fire drill. 3 leaders of diabetes division in 3 years. Reorg every year (no kidding)., usually around Christmas time. Sales management obsessed with metrics and dinners. Toxic environment for reps. Managers are free to set their own benchmarks regardless of what the company expects. In order to get a good rating you need to become a clone of your boss. Every time you get a new boss you have to start all over. Management very short term driven. If you have a bad week they persecute you. People don't know where company is headed. I do not know one rep who is happy working here. Last 3 years has been a storm of confusion, conflicting directives. Stay away

Pros

You Learn a lot about GMP/Pharmaceutical Industry since its heavily regulated by the FDA. The pay is good for the position.

Cons

There are limited opportunities for career advancement, particularly for contractors. Training is generally restricted to the specific process equipment required for assigned tasks, with little opportunity for broader skill development. Additionally, the workplace culture can be challenging. Some long-tenured employees appear to feel entitled to treat others disrespectfully, creating a toxic work environment. Their seniority often seems to shield them from accountability, as concerns raised with management frequently go unaddressed. There also appears to be a lack of diversity and inclusion, which contributes to workplace microaggressions, disrespectful behavior, and an environment where not all employees feel equally valued or respected. There is limited opportunity for contractors being hired on a full time basis, they have to leave the company for six months before they can be hired back! No company benefits for contractors!
