Altasciences reviews

I would not run a study hear as a client. They messed up an expensive study with such poor oversite and processes that were in place. Management is exclusively reactive, never proactive even when employees reach out for reasonable positive change. Training is poor, you HAVE to seek it out (even if there is little incentive to get trained on more technical procedures) Pay is poor, it's obvious that the profits in this industry and this company are high, yet no one is paid enough to reflect this Management become senior for staying at the company for only a couple years, regardless of poor performance

This job involves a lot of physical labor, especially working with animals. They are also almost always under staffed, so once you're trained fully, you'll be working "in the back" for most of the day continuously without breaks. Working "in the back" means you're wearing full PPE working with animals, without easy access to water and bathrooms for hours at a time. There will be many days where you won't be able to see the sun or sky. On top of all this, you will have to work certain holidays and also must sign up for late night shifts once in a while (at least once a month). The last thing is that if you are a recent graduate looking for research experience or want to go into research later, don't look here. The entirety of your job is physical labor handling and working with animals. You don't get enough resources to learn about the actual research or studies being conducted, and there's very little room to grow your career unless you work here for 3+ years. Overall this job is a lot more effort, work, and stress for the amount they're paying you.
