Pros

Prolacta has been one of the best companies I have worked for. From my personal experience, I love the autonomy I am given to complete projects. My manager does not micromanage what I do on a day-to-day basis. I am given projects with meaning and I feel like I am contributing to the organization and I have purpose within the company. I am a working parent, and I have kids to attend to, Prolacta understands that natural interruptions will occur, and they are flexible with my schedule. But it really is more than that, I can tell that they are not only flexible and understanding with my home life, but they care that I am ok and that everyone in my family is doing well too. Apart from my experience, I love how the company really had made an effort to keep everyone connected and created a sense of community with everyone. In 2020 I was an employee that was onsite full time, when the pandemic hit, the company cut down the onsite staff to a skeleton crew to help minimize the unnecessary spread of outside contamination. This made me feel really safe, and that they cared about my well-being along with those that do need to be onsite. They also took the time to help us stay connected with each other with virtual events all throughout the year. Even though we were not together, I liked how they made us feel connected. Not only did they host events, but they also sent out tokens of gratitude throughout 2020.

Cons

Some of the down side about working at Prolacta is that sometimes I feel like I might get stuck in my hired role and that I cannot move forward with my career. Not because they do not want me to develop, but because they do not have the resources to hire someone to take on my old responsibilities.
