Pros

Allows you to work very independently, super low-key work environment, everyone is very friendly, on boarding process is smooth and efficient

Cons

I don't know why there is a 20 word minimum for the cons section. I don't have any cons to mention...

Uncontrolled growth

Pros

There is great PTO - if you can use it. Seems to be a decent opportunity to get your foot in the door in the GMP world.

Cons

Too much work, not enough staff, equipment, or facilities. A member of senior management was heard saying they were intentionally working employees to their breaking point. Some of the business decisions being made makes one wonder what on earth senior management is thinking. Lots of secrecy and egos.

Used to be a good company

Pros

Flexibility to work from home, as long as I got my time in I didn't have to work a set 8-5 schedule, decent benefits

Cons

This used to be a great company to work for with a positive outlook however recently all that seems to matter is profit. That has come at a cost of poor quality, low employee morale, high turnover rates, and a poorly trained and inexperienced new staff. The company is sending most work overseas and laying off experienced, quality workers. Also the salaries are not competitive for this industry.
