Good Luck Ever Getting Promoted - Associate Scientist II Catalent Pharma Employee Review

Pros

There are a lot of good, ethical people here who are committed to conforming to the regulatory standards. At least in my department, safety and quality are taken very seriously.

Cons

Pay starts out a little low and stays low even with annual merit pay increases because the pay increases are like 1-3% at a time so even after 5 years my pay has still only gone up by about 5% total. Promotions are very few and far between. The CDMO structure has led to a lot more work and a focus on revenue that leads to unrealistic expectations. Any increased revenue from getting more clients and contracts is not passed on to the personnel doing the extra work.

The team is incredibly welcoming, knowledgeable, and supportive, which has made it easy to learn and feel comfortable asking questions. There is a strong focus on training and collaboration, helping me feel safe, well prepared, and confident in my role. I also appreciate the benefits, which support a good work-life balance.

Cons

One area for improvement is the flexibility for new employees regarding remote work hours.

Pros

Good people and good training Good stepping stone for a pharma manufacturing career clean environment

Cons

Insanely underappreciative and borderline abusive upper management 3+ months mandatory overtime might as well tell your kids they are orphans, you will never be home power hungry micromanagers (spies on people who takes breaks) different pay for everyone cannot stress enough how bad the upper management is, so many people are leaving (even people who have been working for there 5+ years!) because of the lack of appreciation, micromanagement, and clear lack of respect for their workers. very disorganized
