Swiss Garnier Life Sciences

Our office is at No. 25, right near Hotel Le Royal Meridien. Being close to such a big hotel makes it pretty easy to explain where we are located when people call. Swiss Garnier Life Sciences is where we handle a lot of the administrative side of our pharmaceutical work. It’s a busy building and there are always people coming and going at different hours. Inside, things are organized but you can tell we are busy by the stacks of files and various samples tucked away in the metal cabinets. We spend a lot of time on the phone with suppliers or checking on production schedules at the manufacturing plants. It’s a bit more formal than a repair shop, but we still keep things pretty grounded and simple. We don’t have those big motivational posters on the walls that you see in movies. We just have calendars, task lists, and a few dusty plants. The traffic near the hotel can get really jammed up during the evening rush hour, so most of us try to time our arrival and departure accordingly. We have a small pantry where we have our lunch together, and that's usually where most of the daily talk happens. It’s not just about the science; it’s about making sure the business side of things doesn't fall apart during the week. We aren't trying to be anything we're not. We just show up, do the paperwork, and keep everything running.
