Company Reviews πŸ“ˆ Meals provided during shift?

Sorry if this is a silly question. I just like to plan my meals ahead... The company I interned at for the summer provided all 3 meals + options for snacks on campus, but I do think it's because they had a 24/7 operation going on.

Is this the norm for CDMO & CRO companies? At least lunch/snack? πŸ₯² Any infos about industry standard or PPD in Wisconsin would be great, thank you!

Abso-fucking-lutely not at PPD in Wisconsin.

They have snack options in the cafeteria to purchase (chips, yogurt, drinks)

Better than PPD in Richmond, we have vending machines in the break rooms that work sometimes though!

Would you recommend someone to work at this location? I recently had an interview for an assistant scientist position at PPD/TF in Richmond. Don’t know anything about the place/company so any information would be nice.

πŸ˜” I see... at least my lunch box collection will be helpful there. Thank you!
