Pros
A good stepping stone to get into the industry Some really great people working here. Good stepping stone into the pharma and biotech industry, get to see what goes on behind the scenes with drug development.
Cons
Low pay, mediocre benefits, absolutely no training, weak leadership, company cares more about revenue and costs than customer satisfaction and patient safety. Some managers and directors won't allow you to join their teams because they have personal bias against you. Strong internal talents get overlooked for growth, only for someone externally (with not a whole lot of experience in operations, and not used to working in a fast paced environment) to be hired-- internal talents are used to plug in holes. The turnover rate is outrageous, training is weak at best, and management either doesn't have the time to spend time on your development or just doesn't care. The whole organization needs a readjustment and it starts all the way up with the CEO and his entourage of failures.
