Pros

Benefits are amazing. PTO and vacation are generous. Bonuses are regular.

Cons

Bonuses are like dangled carrots. The moment you want to quit, they throw you money. You're treated badly, then complimented the next. Hours are stupidly long 12.5 per shift and you're expected to never take time off even though you're entitled to it. Nothing is ever good enough and if you have feminine appendages upon your chest and blond hair you can get promotions. If you're black and don't speak English as your first language you're treated as second class citizens.

Pros

Coworkers actually make long 12 1/2 hour shifts go quicker

Cons

Management was awful, treated employees like crap. Work your tail off to get treated bad. Every other weekend you work, while supervisors sit in office and never help on lines!!

Pros

Benefits: health care premiums 100%covered; 19 days PTO; 1 week paid parental leave after 1 year service

Cons

Corporate greed. I worked in the Charlottesville branch, which used to be part of another corporation. Shortly after Abbott bought Alere, there was an all employees meeting broadcast from Chicago, and upper management was talking about how exciting it was that Dengue Fever and Malaria were on the rise because it boosted profits. With newly released tests for COVID, I shudder to think what the breading misty sounds like about this pandemic.
