Pros

They don't have any pros that could even remotely make up for the cons.

Cons

Idexx does not respect education or intelligence. In the ten years I worked for Idexx, I watched as they disrespected highly educated and trained employees by hiring uneducated dolts at higher rates of pay. They'd rather hire people with no job and education experience because they are easier to manipulate. Local management sucks. They're just trying to get approval from their bosses. They will blame their employees for problems they caused, but take credit for employee wins. Typical middle management behavior i guess. Idexx claims to care about work/life balance but only in so far as it doesn't affect the "work" part. Your schedule will suck and they will expect you to rotate onto a weekend day every other week. Management does not understand your job and has unrealistic expectations of how.much you should be doing. 40 differentials per hour isn't fast enough because they refuse to hire the right number of people.

Pros

Animal/Pet loving company with great people.

Cons

Some of the business logic is very lab or biology oriented so some background with that would help.
