Pros

Hybrid Work that allows fully remote work. Manageable business pressure & work life balance The company car

Cons

- Declining business with 3 waves of layoffs in 2.5 years - basically 0 strategy - Cutting all the trade investments and then waiting for the brands to deliver - Old School (in a bad way) employees that are used to doing stuff their own way or in a silo, they don't want to spend more than 2% energy on the job and don't really care about the results of their own work. - The lowest pay within any pharma - Talking about corporate culture - there isn't any. - it feels like a small local business.

Pros

Diverse work environment Lots of variety in job requirements Decent wages Great company if you know someone. Nepotism here.

Cons

There is a formal training guideline that was never completed. We didn't even finish signing off after 6 months. This is for a basic entry level type position. It's not even a higher level position. The technical requirements for pharma are pretty complex. I finished my part but the follow through fell short for hands on experience. It wasn't important to train me so I felt like it wasn't important for me to be there. It was frustrating receiving directions from people who started on the same day as me. I feel like it was because of nepotism. Nepotism exists at this company. They weren't meeting their training on time and were giving me direction and providing me with training. Overall, the rewards couldn't justify the physical demands on my body. I felt frustrated and left incomplete as the only team member without family/friends connection in my anywhere. How did i get this job? I'm clueless about that. Didn't take criticism very well. Felt attacked by calls for action. Higher stress manufacturing environment.
