Think Twice - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso CSL

Would've loved to share these privately, but alas, I never received my exit survey. So here I go. If you have the opportunity to work somewhere else (Kankakee site, specifically), I suggest doing so. To the Union: the company will fire you for things that they let slide with company folks (i.e. sleeping on the job). Most company people do not respect you. They will not listen to you. Management will use you as a scapegoat for their uneducated, lazy decisions. Most company staff in production consistently complain, have no respect for their coworkers, and openly admit to not knowing the process (after working there for multiple years). The Kankakee site fosters ineptitude and laziness. Quality and Regulatory concerns are regularly brought up, and Management ignores them in the interest of saving a few bucks in the short term. Which, we all know, is not sustainable in the long-run. The company, when receiving the employee survey results bringing up genuine concerns, brushed them under the rug and ignored them. You will not be heard at this company. The site is also a total boys club, unless you're best friends with someone up the ladder. Then, once they realize they hired people with lack of proper experience and no backbone, they'll tell you they "really need a woman on the team." HR also has way too much say in hiring, even though they have openly admitted to not knowing what a position entails. Makes sense. In a similar vein, I consistently worked 13+ hour shifts doing the work of 2+ people. When presented with this, HR continued to say they would not hire more people because they "didn't see the need." Consider training HR personnel and informing them on what actually goes on at the site. If you genuinely want to work in the interest of patients, I cannot recommend seeking another place of employment enough. They ride a fine line consistently, slapping band-aids on things instead of fixing the root causes. This is not sustainable, and thus, I cannot see achievement and progress happening anytime soon (unless they fix their serious systemic issues....which I don't see happening either). In the three years I worked there, it has continued to go downhill and became more dehumanizing and stressful each day. Maybe other sites are better, but this one should be avoided at all costs if you value your work, the patients, and having a life. Good luck.
