Work life balance, location, some great people who are the best of the best
Cons
Most managers think of career growth as something they deserve and are using the economy as an excuse for treating employees badly. Layoffs are frequent, often impact long timers with little understanding of the ramifications.

We feel that we are a tight-knit community, and we appreciate you mentioning that. There's no way to sugar coat it: Layoffs are difficult and unfortunate. While we've done our best to provide severance and other support to those that were impacted, we recognize that it will always be seen as not "not good enough." Global economic conditions impact Bio-Rad and the rest of our industry and we had to make some difficult decisions to ensure the long-term success of the company. We're confident that we're on the right path, but that doesn't make the decisions that had to be made any less challenging.
