Pros

Good place to get experience right out of college since they are willing to hire new graduates. I feel confident in my ability to perform PCR and ELISA work because of the experience I received. With the experience here, landing a job at a big pharma company is much easier

Cons

Training can take up to 6 months. In the beginning there wasn't much to do but read company documents and stock the labs. Lots of time being spent bored and stuck in a cubicle. Training on all the assays takes a long time. The pay is extremely low; people often leave within a year or two for a job that pays double

Cons

Management is disjointed, you report to a lead and they act like a liaison

Pros

It’s a great first job, you will get a lot of training.

Cons

Pay is absolutely unacceptable, promotions are not metric based, just where your name falls on the list and if your group leaders like you or not. Too much stress for too little pay. You’re constantly being rushed to meet TAT but quality matters right? Management does not care to change things, in all the years of its existence nothing has been standardized within business units or outside.
