Pros

Good colleagues to work with overall.

Cons

The company states "ETHICS AND COMPLIANCE IN EVERYTHING WE DO" but then hire cheap labour workers from asia through agents like ozone in malta to pay half of what direct entree's earn. There are some lab specialists like myself who are earning 4.50-5€ an hour for the same title job as me, when i am earning almost 9€ per hour just because they are a cheap company run by goons who earn hefty bonuses. Pay is also a disaster. Everyone gets paid a different salary even though they do the same job, every march we have a salary review and management always say that the company hasn't been doing well financially, therefore they can't add so much to your salary, then proceed to send countless emails about how many billions in profit they made that year. Overtime stated in contract, yet when asked for overtime your supervisor proceeds to say that overtime is cut due to tight budgeting. When you complain about your salary, they will tell you "if you don't like it then leave". HR management are bullies who threaten people's jobs for the smallest mistakes and the pompous R&D Management, and the director himself is also a bully who sees everyone below him merely as an ant.
