Pros

Direct colleagues are friendly hard working individuals Decent pay Decent facility

Cons

Management are non existent until something goes wrong when they show their true colours by blaming and belittling staff until they dissappear only to be seen again for the next berating. Have seen a number of colleagues reduced to tears. Seem bewildered when mistakes occur when they show no help or guidance in how to fix and prevent the same problems in the future. Benefits package is poor to non existent. Overall a toxic blame culture with no encouragement when doing well. Bonus is laughable and the way it is calculated is shady and non-transparent. People don't stay long as they are so undervalued and underappreciated. Huge turnover in the last 2 years with no signs of improvement. Avoid at all costs.

Pros

The building architecture is nice.

Cons

Managers with no experience and supervisors with less. Horrible treatment of staff. Bullying at all levels but mostly from the top. If you speak up you are bullied until you shut up. They’ve hired a bunch of con artists as the managers in the new building, not a clue. Worst pharma in Ireland.

Pros

Great experience, lovely and experienced peers

Cons

Thrown in at the deep end and doing things wrong, no structure, no proper training. Quality standards are low in Barcelona in turn think they will be low in Ireland. No employee engagement at all. Constant stress, ambiguity, pressure and emotional/mental manipulation by management. Toxic environment. All smoke and mirrors, no truth or transparency. People marched off site because management took a dislike to them. Family company which expects family loyalty. Think people should be lucky to work for them. No choice but to work long hours. Mental and physical health suffered. No proper performance appraisal. Bonus are pathetic. Put the wrong people in positions of power who don't know the job.
