A typical day at work is either working in a room creating a pharmacuetical product or assembly/tear down and cleaning of a room for the next campaign. I learned about good manufacturing processes and how to follow standard operating procedures. I also learned how to operate equipment in each room to create the desired product. Testing for particle size, water activity, pH and loss on drying techniques were also learned. I worked with a great group of co-workers that I would hang out with outside of work. The hardest part of the job was the monotony mixed with the mandatory overtime schedules. The most enjoyable part of the job was the intrinsic reward of working hard as a team and acceding expected goals on a shift.

What is the best part of working at the company?
30 min travel vs travel out state

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The process manager.  She was unstable

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Just bad.   Sitting in her office.  The rest of the employees were great.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Stressed stressed stressed.  The process manager was a control freak and did not have patience to teach.  She instead took on the workload herself. Which in turn made her a horrible person to work with.

This is a great place to work. Its a small company but everyone is very personable. They take care of their employees well in terms of benefits, bonuses, and job perks. However, their pay rate is a bit lower than most places you will find. My singled biggest regret of my career is leaving this company. If you get an opportunity, take it!

Worst place I've ever worked in my entire career. It's hot and you are made to wear a long sleeved shirt, lab coat and plastic sleeves. Tons of paperwork and you are manually moving 110 pound drums all night. Team leaders micromanage your every move and there are cameras everywhere, even watching you in the break room. It's physically and mentally exhausting. There is a reason it pays well, they cannot keep people. Work place culture is cut throat.



The Management do not seem to move forword by that I mean thier still trying to use the ways of the 1950, 1960 to deal with workers. No matter what you are doing someone is always looking over your back they have video on you at all times not thatyou are doing anything wrong but how wouldyou fell knowing you arebeing watch at all time

The culture of safety is great there, but its a cover your own hide environment outside of that.  Management is not there to back you up. You are intended to learn all aspects of the job by computer then be able preform them in the real world with little else to support you.  Benefits are great and compensation is just ok.  If you like OT this is the place for you.

People seem to be very undependable nowadays and don't show up to work a lot. A lot of callouts. It's a problem. Most people at the company are great to work with a. It's not a bad job and has great benefits. Also shift work can be challenging to some and it is not for everyone. Overall a decent place to work.

They lie about everything to do with job security.  They terminate employees without cause or provocation.  Most two face managerial culture I've ever seen.  

The training is poorly managed. Not trained properly which leads to mistakes. The actual workers do one thing and the Office people do there own thing. The Office people give speeches of how it should be and what they expect. In reality the Job is not done correctly by workers.

This company promoted within from low level technicians eventually into management. The good thing is that dedicated folks moved up.  The major problem is that managers are stubborn to understand that practices 30 years ago are no longer best practice.
