Pros

Benefit and vacation package are competitive. If you are a sheep and follow blindly life at lonza could be good. But if you have an opinion that differs you'll have no life at lonza.

Cons

Quickly expanding with little regard to employee work life balance. Bullying and harassment is prevalent yet ignored by upper management. It's all about the bottom line - just get it done no matter how. Career advancement depends on who you know not what you know.

Pros

6+ hours of break on 12 hour shifts. minimal supervision from leadership. If you have good coworkers, it can be fun.

Cons

Extremely political i.e. if your supervisor doesn't like you for any reason you won't see any kind of progression and it works the opposite way. Communication can be very poor. The kind of leadership you get can vary immensely due to standards not being present nor leaders such as supervisors not being held accountable. As a contractor, pay is pretty low compared to the industry standard.
