      Very busy but lack of resources

      Pros

      If you want to get your hands-on learning about how a generic (and somewhat dysfunctional)pharmaceutical is ran, then this is the company you want to work for. I call it dysfunctional because in any pharmaceutical business, there really isn't a functional company. However, this company will offer an experience you may never will get at another bigger company due to their size.

      Cons

      Not enough resources or experience for you if you are looking to gain any experience. This is still a fairly new company and is still learning its ropes through trails and errors; not exactly a rewarding your 'employee' type company.

      Small changes in site management could make a big difference

      Pros

      Health benefits are average for the area, which is good. Most departments work well together. Products we make are life-saving and essential. Lots of verbal support from corporate. Site does amazing with regulatory agencies. Some of the management team is excellent, listens and works with employees and works with other departments amazingly well. The effort to bring new products and improve site equipment and technologies has been outstanding and appears to be bringing great rewards, but lots of rush rush rush - now wait, we didn't actually want to make expensive improvements.

      Cons

      Site leadership is weak, makes decisions slowly if at all. Does not know how to lead or build teams/teamwork. Uses inappropriate means to punish and reward employees - seemingly because they don't know any better. Failure to plan results in management by reaction. Lots of older equipment and no support for onsite employees making improvements. VERY little upward mobility, as the same people stay in the same spots.
