Pros

Mangers value work life balance and allow their employees to have more flexibility in their day to day lives. Pays are generally competitive. Bonuses are paid on time and no deferring.

Cons

Performance reviews are done more on personal relationship with the bosses rather than on act ual performance. Very traditional ways of thinking and things do not move fast enough. Promotions are mostly to people who have worked in the company for a long time rather than for those who come from outside.

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!
