Pros

The company culture is exceptional. There is a high-level of collaboration that fosters creativity and encourages everyone to jump in, take ownership, and bring their perspective and experiences to the table. It also feels great to know that our efforts contribute to enhancing the well-being of animals globally.

Cons

The company operates in a fast-paced environment and they are focused on innovation and continuous improvement. In addition to that, the company is still working through establishing structure and processes after the transition from Eli Lilly. If someone works better in a slower-paced environment, or relies on a lot of structure and defined processes, they may initially struggle to adapt.

Pros

Plenty of great, passionate coworkers who work hard and collaborate. I had a lot of professional flexibility and my job was always interesting. Process teams on the manufacturing floor is a great system. Offsite resources, especially technical experts, are great.

Cons

Expect to be firefighting constantly and frequently fighting against an aging facility and outdated processes. No unified vision or clear prioritization from management. Misalignment between site leadership and upper/off-site management created sustained operational friction and stress for employees. Leadership turnover was frequent, contributing to ongoing instability. Because of all this, there was a super low morale and a feeling of widespread fatigue. Inconsistent communication and decision-making standards contributed to a low-trust culture, including regular informal discussion of colleagues and unprofessional and sometimes intimidating behavior in meetings. Performance feedback and perceived value were highly dependent on shifting leadership dynamics rather than consistent, objective criteria. Employees could move from being strongly supported to heavily criticized with little change in actual performance. Although a nine-box review process was supposedly used, individual outcomes were not transparently shared with employees. Onboarding and training for specialized roles were underdeveloped. Compensation was just fine for workload and scope of responsibility.
