Bio-Rad Laboratories Software Developer reviews

• I was initially lied to about what I'd be doing (e.g. 99% non-coding after 3 years) and what group I'd be working on, leading me on for about 6 months with false promises after my hire • I was repeatedly asked to risk my personal safety by reaching into a machine while internal parts were in motion • My role went from Hybrid, to Remote, to Hybrid, to Hybrid with the condition that they can pull me in 5 days a week for months on end depending on the work they want me on • I am currently being unfairly treated by my manager and I am being pushed out of the organization by utilizing a illness that I'm actively trying to get diagnosed • When trying to transfer away from my current manager to another group within Bio-Rad they loved me in my interviews with them, but after a week I was told it was a no go -- I was told later by my manager that he gave an "honest" review of me to them • Up to ~70% of your days can be meetings if you hold significance on your team as a SWE/SWD • Bureaucracy is a major failing point for the organization, if you're a team lead expect that every manager in your org now wants a piece of your time to answer the same questions you've already answered many times before • Almost everyone on my team of 10+ people has talked about quitting outright at some point within the past year
