Pros

Good work life balance in the past, maybe not so much anymore since they let go of everyone Good existing product line

Cons

Future job security, work-life balance, and culture look grim. Acquisitions in the Diagnostics division have been a mess and Hologic has chosen to let go entire sites. Additionally they have fired many skilled engineers. It seems that if concerns with company direction were voiced to HR or senior leadership, the company responds by letting those people go rather than addressing concerns. Hopefully things will take a turn for the better

Hologic Response

I appreciate your feedback. Recent acquisitions in the Diagnostic division, like all acquisitions, can be complex and multifaceted. The company's actions, including organizational changes and workforce adjustments, are often made with the long-term sustainability and growth of the business in mind. I believe that voicing concerns, whether to HR or senior leadership, is an important part of ensuring transparency and fostering a positive work environment. It is essential to recognize that organizational changes may be necessary for adapting to evolving market conditions and positioning the company for future success. Your perspective is valued, and I encourage continued dialogue and engagement as we work together towards a positive future for all.

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.
