A Company That Cares - Software Developer bei CompleWare: Mitarbeiterbewertung

Big enough company for some great perks but small enough to really feel like a family atmosphere. Pharma is a serious business but they still make time for fun events to boost morale. Culture is great! There's a lot of teamwork and comradery so you never feel like you're working in a silo - which is nice and different from a lot of other companies.

I really can't think of much to say in terms of the negative. I had the opportunity to work on so many different things (always keeping it interesting) which would not have been possible in a large corporation. The variety meant I was always challenged and never bored.

This was a small company when I worked there, so there was some room to learn new things.

Utterly incompetent upper management (for the most part). Employees are generally expected to do things that are not in their job descriptions, sometimes unethical things (like working on materials that will affect the outcome of medical trials). I was actually let go for refusing to do one of those things. When I told the president that I would not be able to work on that particular project, rather than responding to me, he went running around the facility, looking for my direct manager. There was little reward for these extra contributions. The president has difficulty focusing and likes to micromanage directly over employees' shoulders rather than attending to his own work. When I was there, several web cameras were added to the facilities to "protect supplies" but all of the cameras were pointed at employees and none were pointed at the supply cage. The president once tried to justify having two employees compete on a project by relating it to the episode of "The Apprentice" that he'd seen the night before.
