Anything that is unethical will end up causing problems in the end. I believe any medical device companies will try their best to avoid anything unethical, or they will eventually have to deal with the FDA. PM’s need to set boundaries and should oversee all work. Have meeting with the team and see how you can be more complaint. Come up with a contingency plan if the team will fall behind. Majority of employees will have SOPs to follow, so not following procedure will lead to dire consequences, so there are no cutting corners. A lot of money goes into these projects. Let’s say there was a major issue with the project that was overlooked. The company will lose more than just money. What I learned from working in the medical device industry, there is no cutting corners. We have to follow procedure, and be compliant.
