Rapid growth, reactive, constant change, and zero fail equals challenging work environment; not for the faint of heart. - Anonymous employee Prime Therapeutics Employee Review

Pros

Company continues to enjoy significant growth year over year with its rank and file people genuinely caring about the quality of their own work and the services extended to customers. Each employee really can effect change if they stand up and take ownership. Just don't expect it to A) be easy, and B) to hear angels sing and harps play when done.

Cons

Past decisions by management have created an extremely reactive work environment rather than a more plan full one. This, along with the continued rapid growth of the company, has led to a working environment that requires you to be able to react quickly to a near constant barrage of unplanned work while still completing all previously assigned duties and projects on time and budget. Burn out is high for those unable to separate work pressure from their personal lives. The phrase "don't take work home" has real meaning here if you value your sanity. Management has also taken a "zero fail" approach to everything which in some quarters is leading to an increase in finger pointing, back stabbing, and an increase in severe reprimands for mistakes or oversights that anywhere else would warrant no more than a lessons learned exercise and changes to prevent recurrence. Company needs to do a better job of selecting candidates for management positions that are interested in actually managing their area of responsibility rather than managing up in preparation for their own personal advancement. Personal experience has been that there are more ineffectual managers lacking basic emotional intelligence here than at past employers of similar or larger size.

Pros

- VTO during non-peak season - Mandatory and Voluntary OT during peak season - Few calls per day - personable employees

Cons

- it’s nearly impossible to get hired on full-time. - as a contractor, you have no benefits and can’t partake in any of the company events or even give kudos to your colleagues. - the metrics are somewhat doable, but there are many technicalities that cause them to mess up a lot of the time. - Two months prior to being fired without warning, I was under the impression I was on a written warning, and not a final but was told I would get a follow up email letting me know about it and I never got that email. I did persist and ask about it a few weeks later and still had no follow up. - if you are a contractor, they will look for anything in your performance to fire you as soon as the peak season is over. A colleague was fired that same week due to suspicion of them having a mouse mover with no evidence provided. -I worked 12 hours a day, 7 days a week for two months straight with no days off until they made it mandatory to have at least one day off per week. - two days prior to me getting fired, in a meeting I was told that everything was looking great and that I was fine. It’s very odd how that tune changed abruptly.
