Weak CEO Arrogant COO

Associate director

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Almost none. There are better companies in the area. Come here, you get - Long hours and no recognition.

Cons

CEO exercises minimal oversight and leadership. Has never known to stand up and take a decision. Knowledge of drug development is poor at best. Surprised he is still around. COO - Arrogant. highly distrustful, any perceived threats and triggers her rage. No empathy for anyone even her own team. She herself claims she knows it all - everything about the company and other do not know! belittles the CEO. Manages everyone by gossip. Excellent at spreading blame to others. Never claims accountability although all functions report to her. Provide any feedback and you are in for revenge. Routinely forces subordinates into unethical behavior. HR nightmare!! Medical Officer is supposed to be a founder. Shame! not a leader. Absent

Leadership is Terrible

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Rocket Leadership is good at lying.

Cons

1. The COO is illiterate and insane. She has made millions by mistreating her people, forcing them to work ridiclous hours, and by good old-fashioned lying. 2. The CEO is incapable of being a leader and morally bankrupt. Points 1 and 2 ruin the entire culture of the organization although there are good people that do their jobs well in non ELT postions. If you are thinking about working at Rocket-DON'T! Read the negative reviews carefully and then look at the positive reviews-the positive reviews are all fake. Then do some research and look at how long the majority of Rocket employees stay with the organization.
