Charles River Laboratories Environment Employee Reviews

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

Inclusivity And acceptance from pretty much every team.

We know each other past work environment. Their kids pets hobbies, and more. I think this influences greatly on how you work with someone

Many women in science and supervisory positions. Very LGBT positive and people from all different backgrounds working together. Overall, the opposite of a toxic work environment, wonderful people that bend over backwards to make sure their work is good.

Review from Operations Dept

Recent addition of Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) - however, most people in the company are too busy to take advantage of these.

respectful, thoughtful, and comes from a place of caring

Good work life balance and if it falls out of balance, they do what they can to fix it

Review from Operations Dept

The most positive item about the culture of the company is the family mentality. Everyone works together, and cares for each other. The attitude is that "the big wigs are figureheads, who are never around, so let's do the work, and do an awesome job in doing so. If we have fun, all the better"

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Better direct line management that are not just left over from past mergers.

An entirely new management team starting with the execution of Napier,Terri

certain old timers gotta go. better job/role definition.
