The culture of GTx rewards initiative – we take pride in our work, and we are motivated to exceed expectations. We are highly selective about the colleagues we ask to join us, and we believe it says a lot that our employee turnover rate is exceptionally low. Below, in their own words, GTx employees explain why they chose to come to GTx and what it is like to work here.
Susan, Director, Medical Communications Team Leader
GTx is an exciting biotech with impressive potential and people. The preclinical and clinical pipeline carry great promise for new therapies and treatments. And, importantly for me, it is a people-driven company that is supportive of its employees and where I believe I can make a real difference.
Angel, Laboratory Technician, Analytical
Work at GTx is a continuing educational process. We learn new lab techniques daily. Guest scientists lecture regularly. And, GTx does a great job keeping its employees informed about corporate developments. The morning of the announcement of our successful Phase III study results, we arrived to a large celebration – balloons, a DJ blasting music into the parking lot and then the announcement in the break room by Dr. Steiner. It was great how the company shared its good news with everyone.
Casey, Research Scientist II, Cell Biology
The best part about working at GTx is the people. GTx has recruited outstanding scientists to create a world-class discovery program. We know that innovation is the key to success in the biopharmaceutical industry. Our drug discovery and development effort is focused, and we have a demonstrated record of success with our SERMs, SARMs and our preclinical pipeline. That’s why we have established a name for ourselves as leaders in this field.
Cubie, Scientist I, Analytical
In my three years at GTx, I have worked on projects both large and small. Project teams are well organized, which allows all of us to be continually engaged in the collection of meaningful scientific data to make the best decisions. It is exciting to be a part of the process of moving a new compound from its discovery on the lab bench through clinical trials and ultimately to be dispensed to a patient by a local pharmacist.
Shontelle, Vice President, Medical Affairs
I came to GTx because it offers me an opportunity to meaningfully employ the skills I acquired during my 13-year pharmaceutical career. Senior management here exhibits real passion and enthusiasm to bring life-saving medications to patients, and they do not see failure as an option. The science behind the product portfolio is sound and innovative. All of this makes for a motivating work environment.
