Pros

Rapid growth. $25/mon for gym. 4% match of 401k. Christmas dinner at Dave and Buster.

Cons

No business plan. No employee book. 20% of company is owner relatives with high pay but no degrees. No job descriptions ever provided. Work is as demanded and at will. Inexperienced COO runs lab. COO's MBA paid for by owner at company expense. Company buying competitors. Employees increased revenue by 20% while CEO keeps buying new instruments costing $1-3M every 6 months. Looks like CEO has divided company and will sell Company this year. Raises are 2-3%, but growth is >20% per yr. Employees not rewarded for producing 20-30% yearly growth rate over 7 yrs of existence. Insurance plan changes every year. No stock shares.

Pros

-Great place to start if you are just coming out of college and getting into the scientific community -Good group of people to work with, fun and eclectic

Cons

- Pay is much below what someone in the scientific field may be expecting - very little chance of advancement. those who advance are those replacing others leaving on their own terms. Even then they do a lot of outside hires to replace advancement positions. - Since merging with a big business of EAG; raises, benefits, and perks were removed

Pros

Good place to start working in the sciences. Most biologist positions will train you in a variety of useful skills and allow you to build a base of professional experience.

Cons

Salary is lower than average, and getting lower since being bought out by EAG. There is also little chance for growth from entry level position since most advanced positions are filled by outside hires. This leaves turn over high for entry level position which causes problems with workflow.
