Pharma Logistics reviews about "leadership"

Pay is not competitive. Not being able to work full time remote.

The leadership is honestly the worst I have encounter in my entire career. Multiple allegations for sexual harassment, horrible working conditions for Waterhouse workers, honestly sub par pay to start with and no ability to increase that by much due to preference given to local/in person workers. I would never wish this on a person - you will go in bright (hopefully) and leave burnt out.. so hard to watch and it truly breaks my heart for anyone that ends up here.

Overtime hours - 10hrs a day (with saturdays sometimes being mandatory) On your feet all day (but you get mostly used to it)

A steeper than anticipated hill learning the various aspects of the company as a new employee, more likely as a result of social distancing and Covid.

First, do not believe all of the "positive" reviews left on here. They demand every employee come on here and write something good to make them sound better. The company is small enough that they can tell who wrote them so most people are too afraid to write anything negative. Most of the reviews are written by HR team members and are extremely fake and untrue. Don't listen to the "great culture" and that they "care about the employees and customer" comments. They are doing everything they can do to screw both of them. They say that they have certain core values that they do business by and try to withhold all of their employees accountable. This could not be further from the truth unfortunately. One of Pharma Logistics core values is communication. So it is rather unfortunate that we never hear anything constructive from any of the "leaders" here. The only time anything is ever communicated is only when it is too late and you cant do anything at that point. They are too busy ignoring the people they don't like and you can't even get a hello when you see them. There have been many examples when I have seen a fellow coworker ask for help and get 1) ignored 2) laughed at for asking or 3) told the same thing to try from before and provide no other support or options to try. Employees are leaving the company as quickly as they come in. They have a very high turnover rate and that takes a toll on peoples moral. Some days you can come in and see that someone has been let go without any information as to why and it is never addressed. They are struggling to attract any top talent. At the start of working there they have 30, 60 and 90 day follow up meeting where they asked to rate them on a scale of 1-10 about various things. You cant give them a real answer to how you're feeling because they can let you go no questions asked up until 90 days. The day after that you'll never be asked to rate them again. I have tried to have multiple conversations with a HR team member after those initial check-ins only for nothing to happen. They ask for suggestions on how to improve but never implement them. HR doesn't have your back and never will, they are there to protect the company not the employee. This is just another example of them acting like they care but not doing anything. As far as Passion goes, I have seen that and any drive beaten out of any new hires and the current employees. They don't do anything actively that shows that they care about the people coming in everyday and working. The only times you ever see any sort of passion or communication from the leadership team is when their own jobs on the line and they need to find someone to yell at and blame. I understand that the past year has been difficult for a lot of people but what this company has done to so many people during this time has been ridiculous. Forcing people to come into the office when they have had children at home and have been uncomfortable leaving them at the risk of losing their job. This isn't even including the harassment claim that they sat on for two months until it was brought up in the middle of a company wide meeting by the victim. Then they acted really concerned when it came out but clearly didn't until it looked bad on them and they had to do something to save face.

Toxic culture Micro management style of leadership. but will make you sit through a training called “involved management” which is the toxic spin they’ve put on it. Zero trust from the top down. Be prepared to be monitored anytime you’re on your computer. ActivTrack is used to “gather data for growth opportunities” that’s what they tell you anyways. But it’s really used as a tool to monitor your every move. You better wiggle that mouse so the screen doesn’t go black and you get dinged on the weekly report. Bullying, controlling, narcissistic CEO (check out his LinkedIn posts) he’s made it his mission to let the “haters” (former employees) know how he feels about them . His response and actions are anything but that of a professional and dignified owner of a company!

Toxic culture chock full of distrust, micromanagement, and 'everyone is replaceable' mentality. Don't let the accountability speech fool you, it's micromanagement. And this is top down. The CEO has zero trust of anyone who works for him, and this is pushed down and felt across the organization. Just ask yourself, why would an employer install ActivTrak on corporate employees computers to the point of tracking mouse movement and key strokes? The company has been stagnant for years so don't let the growth opportunity fool you. There is none. The pay is subpar , especially for the work expected of you. The growth opportunities are minimal with a laughable increase attached that's so far behind market standards, it's ridiculous. And the ethically questionable employer practices proof of a leadership who think they know best, but don't. My advise? Know your rights. There is zero trust or value for employees. Everyone is replaceable and be prepared to feel that daily. The benefits are as subpar as the pay. I have no problem with hard work, when it's valued, but it's a one way street only in this company and it's not in your favor. Work life balance? Forget about it. They even created their own fun way of saying you have no balance.

Continuous change, so I would not recommend this position to someone who does not like change.
