Pros

Good salaries and respect of employees' time. Excellent 401k, with company matching 1.5x up to 9%, I believe it is.

Cons

Employees are not recognized proportionally for their merits. Advancement is largely based on networking and "buttering up." Recognition for merits requires going far above and beyond, and even then there is no guarantee it will matter come review time. Raises are meager. There's a good amount of talking about one another that goes on. It sometimes feels a bit like high school all over again. This place seems to have an ego problem... everyone thinks they're the bee's knees and has to constantly validate that belief. Unfortunately, I've heard it's not the company it used to be.

Pros

Decent benefits Great flexible schedule Always work to do Great pay

Cons

Management is always looking at taking on new projects and clients so there is always change and uncertainty, which is to be expected since CordenPharma is a CDMO.

Pros

Good coworkers and lower level management

Cons

Upper management and HR have been especially difficult. Pay inequities. Safety culture is bad. They don’t give us what we need to do our jobs, then get mad when we can’t do our jobs.
