Pros

Its not a high pressure environment, most people come in right at 8 and leave right at 5. Overtime isn't expected. Pretty easy work, which is spread around pretty evenly. Most non management level employees are quite nice and down to earth.

Cons

The real problem with the company is that most of the management has been at the company for a very long time, while the average workers keep rotating quickly. There is no accountability for management while the little guy does most of the work and gets non of the credit. There is almost no room for growth, and what little positions are up for grabs are quickly filled by the favorites. The place operates like a small village, where everyone knows everything about everyone, the smallest incident is a scandal, gossip galore, cronyism and nepotism. The pay is terrible, even mid level management doesn't get paid much, the entry level positions are bargain pricing. The company gives no raises apart form an occasional 1-2% cost of living increase, there is no means by which to get a performance raise or bonus. For Christmas we get $25 dollars, that is the thank you for helping the company succeed. If you dont suck up to a select few, you are getting no where, regardless of your work ethic. The human resources department is the most unprofessional and unethical I have ever seen, they are the first ones to avoid. Very strange company culture, that cant last much longer. The company has turned over half its administrative positions in the last year, that says a lot.

Pros

While my coworkers have been a joy to work with, I can't say the same with the company. Working for Isolatek International has been stressful, frustrating, and miserable. If you're thinking about applying for a position here, I urge you to reconsider.

Cons

The work environment at Isolatek International is the most toxic I have ever seen! Employees are overworked, underpaid, and disrespected daily; we're treated as nothing more than disposable pawns by the company. Workloads are brutal, expectations are sky-high, and support isn't provided, and the salaries we're paid don't reflect that at all. Opportunities to advance are scarce, and raises are rarely given. It's already awful enough to work here, but things are even worse if you are a woman! Managers will harass you and make inappropriate remarks all the time. You'll be treated as stupid and helpless, and constantly talked down to, even if you've been consistently outperforming your colleagues.
