It's your everyday "plasma" mill.

Pros

The FSA and benefits package is good compared to other companies

Cons

They don't value their employees enough. They will take a nobody and turn them in to a Grifols "certified" Phlebotomist but they are not certified by the state, so that makes it so they can't go anyplace else and work.

Pros

They don't really expect much work, so if you don't like working hard, Grifols is the place for you.

Cons

Low salary, poor benefits, awful working conditions, incompetent management. To make it worse, Talecris was a pretty good employer. They were good to employees, made lots of money for investors, and provided life-saving drugs to patients in need. Now everything is about feeding the CEO's very oversized ego. It's understandable that after buying Talecris, they would need to be tight with money, but how can they justify laying off people and slashing R&D spending and then build a museum (as if anyone actually is actually going to visit an industrial plasma fractionation museum) and the CEO doesn't have time to run the company but has time to write memoirs.

Pros

Minimal mental thought process is required for most entry level positions. Compensation for overtime if an hourly employee.

Cons

Some departments (if not most) promote based on seniority and not credentials. There is very little room for advancement because of seniority based promotions. Salary is not competitive. The turnover rate in certain divisions is extremely high. There are no sick days.
