Pros

Biopharmaceutical plant located in the North of Singapore, very accessible to main island. Salary is fairly decent, much better that other biopharmaceutical companies at Tuas.

Cons

Limited products and facing patent cliff. Competitors for substitute taking up market shares of Factor VIII e.g Hemlibra. Product margin dropping and technology is old. Limited talents, too many mediocre managers, promoted based on long service and loyalty. For a small plant it doesn't create too much of value but waste.

Pros

Great Benefits, it is world class!

Cons

HR is not supportive when requiring help. People abuse the short term disability and nothing is done. The site head is abusive and denigrates people in public making them cry. The environment is toxic and political. People only care about getting product out the door. There is .no regard for people. All the right buzz words like psychological safety and respect are written everywhere, just rarely practiced. If poor management behavior is confronted, you will be terminated.
