Pros

Good experience in a lab and looks good on a resume. Good for a first job out of a science degree.

Cons

Lack of tasks. Simply too many people working in the lab, all working less than half the time. Safety was overkill - certain protective equipment was wasteful and time consuming (arm sleeves for working with acids). Having to find a stool to take bins off a shoulder height shelf for example

Pros

Easy way to get a few years of experience before you find something better.

Cons

Low pay, frequent threats of layoffs, and you are either being horribly overworked due to an insane sample load or forced to have your hours cut due to lack of business.
