Apotex Inc.

Penny pinching is killing it for workers

Operations in Toronto, Ontario

Pros:

IF you are in the right department & know the right people you are ok for a secure job for many years. When things are normal (not being told that you may lose your job in a month or two) it is a normal work environment, clean & secure work areas, high tech facilities.

Cons:

The recent job cuts are due to relocation to India, the labor is less than half the cost, if these recent moves turn out positive Apotex will no doubt move many more jobs from North America to low cost India, what they don't realize is that you will get what you pay for! There were many more layoffs in 2005, since then the company has been clawing back at absolutely everything from the people who do the real work, Management is not effected as usual.
