      Politics play a large part and employees undervalued

      Pros

      The benfits are great. I dont know what the pension benefits are of new employees but there is still a pension for those of us here. The people are really smart and most of them are nice

      Cons

      The flip side of most of them are nice is the nacl stanbers and they are here. Also politics are paramount even down tp the senior manager level. There are a large number of senior directors and above who are ebst tp avoid or around whom its best to walk on egg shells last they are willing to chew you up and spit you woth little value of the employees

      AVOID AVOID AVOID Worcester!!

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Commute is much easier than other Boston-area biotechs.

      Cons

      VICIOUS company politics, especially within engineering. Stale company culture, driven by long-service staff whose only qualification is starting with the old BASF back in the 90s. No leadership, management or people skills at all! Career opportunities are not merit-based but based solely on who you know and who your friends are. Ditto with merit raises - new focus on core behaviors being used by management as a tool to reward friends and punish perceive threats regardless of actual performance. All decisions based on company politics, nobody even pretends to look at facts. Actual high performers are either actively job hunting or already left. Pay is very poor compared to other companies. Even the cafeteria food is awful and overpriced. DON'T RISK IT - avoid this place!

      Pros

      Very organized and structured hierarchy of do's and don'ts when it comes to execution of projects. Overtime available.

      Cons

      Very monotonous schedule, no attitude adjustments when things go good or bad, always kind of sad and gloomy even though company is doing well fiscally. Ventilation system is cold and smells a bit musty. Working hard doesn't get rewarded verbally or otherwise, kind of 'guilty of not saving the world' attitude.
