There are a lot of reasons I love to sit down and read an Establishment Inspection Report, you can learn a ton from them.
One lesson one should always take from them is it could be your name discussing some awful problem in some regulatory document. I can, for example, read the Sanofi EIRs from 2020 and 2022 and easily see myself in many of the discussed points. I was there for a decade (well at the Allston landing Facility) and to be frank there are a lot of names from some very good people there. And often they are justifying some horrible stuff. I feel pretty bad and I can guess on the series of compromises that got them there.
It puts a lot in perspective.
