Pros

The only positive experience I have had here was when we volunteered for the community. People enjoyed coming to work on that day.

Cons

No one enjoys working here. You constantly hear "I can't wait till I can go home and drink" or "why isn't it Friday?". They expect you to work 50+ hours on salary with no work-life balance or extra benefits. Holiday parties are employees only during work hours. Moral is lowest I've ever seen.

Pros

This is a very well structured company affiliated with Novartis. Nice life-work balance. The employees want the company to succeed and try hard within the structure to work at improving the quality. It has been able to acheive satisfactory status with FDA.

Cons

Roles and responsabilities within teams are not well defined. Management collaboration is not always attained. Objectives and evaluation system should be more aligned. There has been multiple issues, it almost seems that there is a black cloud following the company's progress. Two steps forward, one step sideways, one step back is how I would define its progress. Productivity is down, and quality requirements has been increased. It creates lot rejections, and customer back orders.
