Pros

This organization looked so appealing to me when I was onboarding. I felt like I was walking into a great organization with a strong culture. But, not everything is what it seems. They do preach a strong culture. They are a diverse organization that has okay benefits, I really liked the health plans.

Cons

I decided to finally write this review with great disappointment for the CEO. I was recently removed from social media for "being a hater". During my time at Pharma Logistics, over 3 years, I continuously provided the company my best. I never felt that reciprocated after my first year and for the rest of my time there. Their culture was definitely pushed to the lower levels of employees, and not maintained at the highest. I continuosly felt like I had to walk on egg shells around the office, as to not upset the man in charge. Be aware that this organization changes it's direction year over year. Also in just over 3 years, I reported to 5 different supervisors. In that time, I also watched countless department leads be fired or leave. I think that says something when those who must work closest with the CEO do not stay around for any length of time. Turnover is extremely high. But what else can you say when high turnover is already expected from the highest levels. One of the final straws for me was the use of spyware that the organization installs onto every PC. There is no sense of loyalty or trust from this organization. If you go into IT here, no room for growth or advancement. Be careful what you say, and to who it's said to.

Thank you for your post and your 4 years of service. We would also like to thank you for your appreciation of our diversity and the excellent benefits we provide, especially our health insurance. While we appreciate your contributions, we are admittedly disappointed you didn't feel they were reciprocated. That's definitely NOT the culture our CEO is looking to pass on. It looks like we need to improve our internal communications. Over the past 5 years we have only had 2 strategic growth initiatives.....amPLify and Plan to Win, and both are 3 year plans. We are unsure how our CEO was able to remove an ex-employee from social media, but we are confident he will be more than happy to speak with you about your experiences as he's always looking for feedback, good or bad. Please reach out to him. Turnover comes up often on Glassdoor and we recognize that perception is reality. Here are a few facts from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. In 2021, the overall turnover rate was 57.3%. This is broken out with 25% being voluntary, 29% involuntary and 3% of high performers. All of our turnover numbers come in well below these statistics in all categories. Pharma Logistics does use a tool called ActivTrak. When this productivity tool was brought in, every employee was notified in advance and every new hire is told about it during onboarding. We encourage readers to visit activtrak.com to learn more. ActivTrak isn't "spyware", Rather, it is a workforce analytics tool. As a data driven organization, ActivTrak is an important tool to help us exceed customer expectations. Thank you again for your post and please, reach out to our CEO. We are certain he will be more than happy to speak with you!
