Pros

I got a paycheck every two weeks. There was some freedom to come and go at times. Other than that, none. Analysts were treated poorly and quit without notice.

Cons

Other reviews have covered them. This company should be checked out by the state. The business model is one I hope never to see again. When I think about working there, I get a cold, uneasy feeling. When I see their ads for analysts to hire I smile and hope their branches shut down.

Pros

Great bosses, structured support from corporate office, workload is manageable compared to other labs I’ve worked for, overall culture is good

Cons

Benefits and pay aren’t great, particularly the benefits, they’re a little pricey and outside of preventative care, don’t cover enough imho, 401k is very low to where it’s almost nonexistent

Pros

- Job is straightforward - Management is pretty lax

Cons

- Lacks managerial oversight - Very little PTO - Unsafe - If you do not have a Bachelor's Degree, you will probably not be advancing very far at this company. Management will lead you on, but will always give preferential treatment (bonuses, analyst positions, etc.) to people with more schooling.
