Pros

Good pay for the area, great medical, dental and optical and a 401K matched up to 6%. Just about endless over time by department of course. 5 sick day, 4 personal day and 3 week vacation to start.

Cons

Management is lacking. In some cases if you don't kiss butt, and have big brests you won't be promoted no matter how hard you work. You get guilted when taking anytime off and it's held against you in your review. When working in the influenza department you can't have a life they don't treat you like a person just a number. They expect you to work obserd hours without asking or letting you know with out any notice.

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!
