Pros

Co-workers are the only thing that will make this job slightly bearable

Cons

95% of the lab assistance have a bachelors of science, yet the environmental staff gets paid more than us. They are deserving of this pay of course, but the lab assistants are also more than deserving. We have to deal with constant short staff, things change constantly, they expect you to keep updated on procedural changes outside of work despite this pitiful salary and expect you to bend over backwards with no reward.. If you're smart, you'll just take the sign on bonus and salary of the Janitors.. This position will not help you to advance in your field of study anyway, nobody has your back, stay away.
