PACT Pharma Reviews

- Lack of trust and scrutiny from the top down for clinical work, resulting in micromanaging and severe anxiety. It's easy to experience burnout. - PACT's aggressive goals and culture results in crazy workloads at the expense of hiring and critical infrastructure for the clinical trial. Many forms are literally printed and signed physically - Management pretends to care about work-life balance but expects scientists/RAs to work as late as necessary to get work done - Science is well funded but management has extremely tight purse strings for employee perks. Pre-COVID, upper management would routinely buy weekly lunches for themselves, but not employees. A lot of leftover rice and salad was left in the lunchroom. - Some managers have no experience managing and it shows. There are a lot of communication issues and favoritism in certain groups (i.e. people getting promoted every year over more qualified individuals).

Many managers have never managed before and it shows. Arrogance, lack of trust and lack of integrity are huge issues here.
