Pros

The only pro I got out of this company was putting industry experience on my resume. The company also provides good health care and benefits however the cons outweigh the pros in this case.

Cons

The company is NOT diverse. Nearly 80% of the company is of asian descent which creates a high school clique like environment. There is absolutely no structure in management and on board of directors. Most of the company is inexperienced from HR to lab managers and handle situations misproperly. It won't be long before a huge law suit is filed against this company for mistreating their employees and doing things illegally.

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.
