I started as a trainee at Wockhardt before completing my master's degree. I learned lot of new techniques, I was encouraged and challenged to ask questions, learn and develop skills required for a researcher. There were always valuable discussions in the morning that helped to develop thinking process towards answering research questions. It was a great workplace to start my career because it moulded me into a researcher. My team was excellent, I always got chance to work on separate things while working in the group, which is very important in terms of developing team working skills! I would like to go back and be a part of such a great company and very welcoming, encouraging work culture!

Dislikes

This company is a big time sadist and narcissistic. It drains an employee mentally and harasses them saying we will stop your salary. They gives you a said position but make you work like a labourer. I’m placed as senior product manager in the company but I was asked to do things apart from the job role.
