How normal is chronic understaffing in research teams? We have been short 2 coordinators for over a year and enrollment targets never changed. I make $72K and routinely work late to keep studies compliant. How long do people usually tolerate this?

It’s impacting everywhere. Going somewhere else isn’t a fix, as you’ll probably run into the same issue. Companies are being very hesitant to increase budgets.

That sounds really rough, I’m sorry to hear that. I have been seeing understaffing become more of an issue

Especially interested in the SM level and above. I’d prefer staying at Big 4 and avoid the supplier side.

I have been approached by 3 separate HR people at a startup company to interview for a position. I already have a fulltime job that pays well and I only started 6 months ago too. Anyways, the pay was intriguing and the job was a high level scientific advisor so I did interviews. At the last interview, at the end I was told the job was for management but I prepared for a different kind of interview. I am waiting for an offer or rejection letter. I feel peeved that they wasted my time. Red flags?

Salaries would be comparable (Lilly would most likely be a little more with bonuses), but if the culture sucks, I’d hate to burn a bridge with Envigo.
