Worked for BG long enough to understand the issues
Pros
We have great genetics products, we also have a great brand, our holding company is very generous , the PTO grows per employee experience, the office is in the medical center which keeps us close to other medical markets. 3 year 401k vest. ZERO training for how to work with the company or understand their programs/processes.
Cons
Sales team and Genetic Counseling team has dwindled down to threads. Everyone who works here has either been here less than a year or 3+ years due to the 401k vest. Most people leave within a year or stay only for the 3 year vest then leave. Most people just don't show up on fridays, so nothing really gets done those days. Most say they are working remotely but are hard to reach . Attrition is very high in all depts, including execs. Worst part of the job is creating POWERPOINTS for every single little thing such as the need for a work laptop! Very simple requests to more in depth requests are all strictly subject to powerpoints along with very strict criteria. Another huge CON is that the CEO wants his hands in every little movement that the company has and micromanages every decision in the dept and demands a signoff for even smaller decisions. Parking in the parking garage is $130 a month and isn't paid for by the company.
