Thanks for taking the time to share your perspective. It makes us really proud that the culture and work environment consistently get such high marks from our employees. Your point that our salary increases have been lower than usual recently is heard and understood. As a global company we're subject to the same market forces that affect our entire industry. So we do have to work harder as a company in the current climate (and yes, that extends to sales targets) but we're confident that Bio-Rad is prepared to thrive for the long term beyond the current challenges.

Hmmm... for a one-star review, you give us a lot of kudos that we certainly appreciate. It sounds like you have a lot of ideas about how we can grow and improve and we hope that you're taking these ideas to your team so that we can address them most effectively.

Unstable Future

Recommend

Business Outlook

Pros

Historically stable, but completely new Management at the C-Suite and VP levels. During my tenure, promotion opportunities were granted every 4-5 years of service

Cons

New Product pipeline is minimal. Appear to be in a contraction mode and pulling levers to pause the losses.

Thank you for sharing your perspective as a long-time employee. It's true that some things have changed at Bio-Rad-- we're part of a rapidly evolving industry. We're confident that our recent shifts are better equipping us to handle what comes next. So we're in agreement that "levers are being pulled" as you say, but we see that as positive progress. Best of luck to you in the next stage of your career.
