Medical sweatshop

Specimen processor

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

None that I can think of.

Cons

Run by a short sighted VP who had specimen processors backdating covid tests at the height of the pandemic so the system wouldn't flag them. These specimen were so old that some had grown mold inside. Unsafe, draconian working conditions. Supervisors cared more about employees wearing headphones than proper PPE. Unhinged supervisors who bully workers, get people u justly fired, or make the workplace so uncomfortable that they quit. Racist, homophonic, and transphobic supervisors harass LGBTQ+ employees.

Awful experience

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good training program for new employees

Cons

I was offered a job that didn't start yet, so they sent me 2 hrs from home. Then they didn't tell me the office was closing but had nothing planned for me. On top of all that they NEVER took taxes out for the six months I worked there. $3000 in taxes I had to pay! They treat you like a number. Not good

Nobody knows what they’re doing over there.

Business Outlook

Pros

Good health benefits and decent 401K.

Cons

Nobody knows what they’re doing. After COVID the company had to layoff a lot of people because they realized they can’t make Covid money anymore and they over hired on the executive sides during Covid. They want to be like Quest so bad.
