Vantaggi

Good salary Not over standardized International A lot of chances for new ideas (although most cannot be used because nobody decides)

Svantaggi

- Almost no standards at all, which partly leads to chaotic and intransparent structures, decisions and costs - No project management enforced - No project leads, always indecisive teams - No clear vision or mission - Most important for management apart from the CEO: Don't take any decisions and don't be responsible for anything - CEO makes decisions but does not make sure they are enforced by leaders and good project management - All this leads to rash decisions in all directions on the lower levels which must often be canceled and create more chaos, work and frustration - HR and career development not really existing apart from lip service -> Employees don't matter

Vantaggi

Compensation (for higher level associates/senior management positions)

Svantaggi

1) Work/life balance - leaders don't honor paid time off. Many teams expect you to be available during paid time off periods 2) Benefits - employer doesn't offer employer-subsidized vision insurance 3) Holidays - employer doesn't offer MLK Day and Juneteeth as paid days off, indicating how little they value diversity, inclusion, and belonging 4) Promotions - political; not based on merit 5) Mandated 5 day return-to-office to enable "in person collaboration" while at the same time offshoring jobs to cheaper markets. 6) PTO - based on tenure, but I think Lonza prefers high turnover so they don't have to give people time off (if they even honor it in the first place - see con 1) 7) Lack of harmonization - for an established CDMO, I was surprised at the level of misalignment between sites and the lack of standardization of processes
