Pros

Great people running the ground work. It's the hard working people that make the company what it is. Sadly it's lost many and will continue to lose more of these amazing ppl.

Cons

Australia has had a huge turnover of staff over the past year. Top heavy in management and the rest are left in dire need of more head count. No work life balance. Stressful trying to keep up with over bearing workload. Very little is given back to reward staff for efforts. Many have left and looks like more to follow. Staff are wearing themselves out mentally emotionally physically with little benefits or reward. Not innovative or forward thinking. It's very important to look after staff wellbeing to get the best and most and to keep them long term. Very sad to see

Pros

Fair Pay, some pretty good teammates

Cons

Worked there a while back and overall Hologic was not much on work-life balance in the IT department. It is often expected to work extra hours during key projects/upgrades, but these projects could go on years or multiple long periods during a year. CIO had a punitive management style who reveled, proudly and vocally, in that role. Any communication to anyone outside of the IT department was also strongly micromanaged by the organization's CIO. This level of micromanagement and very vocal punitive management style all served in an attempt to hide much disorganization and level of noncompetence at that very top-level individual. Under the CIO are some decent directors however, but it was always dismaying to see what these direct reports to the CIO had to deal with. I believe after years it became so normalized to them that they stopped realizing what should be normal.
