The hardest part of the job.
SOP Administrator, Expedited Analyst (Current Employee), Seattle, WA – November 15, 2012
Pros: loyalty, integrity, hospitable nature, intelligent and considerate
Cons: you must drive me away from the desk to take a lunch or a break, i will forget my birthday, i will try to say good morning to all.
The hardest part of the job would be to know it is time to stop. I enjoy working and I push through obstacles often. It is my desire to challenge myself as the mere opportunity helps me improve my skill set and knowledge of the industry, I seek to take on more and by completing my tasks assigned, I improve. I have an excellent demeanor and nature for – more... any work environment and with my experience in a logistics, and clinical research environment, you would be hard pressed to find one to equal my drive, passion and vigor. Don't take my word for it. Please, see for yourself. – less

A good place to work, very good benefits
Senior Buyer (Current Employee), Seattle, WA – September 30, 2012
Pros: a great place to work in a beautiful city
Cons: very bad traffic congestion
The day begins going through emails looking for problems and reviewing new incoming requisitions. Next would be running reports to work through delivery and pricing issues. Our entire system is running on PeopleSoft so everything is electronic. On the requisitions for capital equipment or maintenance contracts depending on the vendor and the amount – more... of money I will review the terms and conditions. If I find anything that I’m not conformable with I will negotiate with the vendor. From time to time I will get from a request HR to move a new recruit’s household and lab to the Seattle area. I’ll also get involved with projects like the identifying the equipment needed for a new clinic the center is building in Uganda.
In the years I’ve worked at this company I learned to work with a variety of people on a myriad of problems and issues. I become very comfortable using database tools and spreadsheets along with common sense to address these problems and issues.
The hardest part is to try and not get too overwhelmed with the work load. The most enjoyable part was working with the people. – less
