Pros

Free lunch, basic repetitive tasks, easy, nice clean building in a good area, they’ll hire anyone

Cons

Labs are crowded, lots of gossip, boring, low pay, lots of double standards, if you're a favorite with the leads you can get away with anything, otherwise good luck. You’re stuck with miserable people who enjoy tearing others down to pass the time. They hire literally anyone with minimal screening so expect the worst. Terrible for anyone who wants to be in a professional environment or progress a career.

Pros

Benefits, pay, and catered lunch orders every shift. Company currently growing and seeking to expand its operations. Will learn plenty in lab with the training--opened my eyes to how biotech industry can work with this being my first professional role.

Cons

Fast-paced environment with less consideration for slower coworkers, coworkers that felt cliquey, and management that seemed distant and unapproachable. Getting along with coworkers was the toughest part for me. Some coworkers seemed unapproachable. Had trouble feeling a sense of belonging on the team with seemingly constant critique about my performance with very little mentioning of people seeing improvement.
