Pros

The people at Genzyme Diagnostics are friendly and easy to get along with. Everyone is very helpful. This makes for a great working environment.

Cons

Not much opportunity to grow career-wise. Advancement is a frequently a long, years of service-based process regardless of achievements. Decisions from the higher ups are communicated at the last moment and take most people by surprise. There is a definite disconnect between management and employees.

Pros

You Learn a lot about GMP/Pharmaceutical Industry since its heavily regulated by the FDA. The pay is good for the position.

Cons

There are limited opportunities for career advancement, particularly for contractors. Training is generally restricted to the specific process equipment required for assigned tasks, with little opportunity for broader skill development. Additionally, the workplace culture can be challenging. Some long-tenured employees appear to feel entitled to treat others disrespectfully, creating a toxic work environment. Their seniority often seems to shield them from accountability, as concerns raised with management frequently go unaddressed. There also appears to be a lack of diversity and inclusion, which contributes to workplace microaggressions, disrespectful behavior, and an environment where not all employees feel equally valued or respected. There is limited opportunity for contractors being hired on a full time basis, they have to leave the company for six months before they can be hired back! No company benefits for contractors!
