Pros

The products are useful and help people have healthy children.

Cons

Certain managers bully their subordinates and have no experience whatsoever. There is a lot of micromanaging, which makes for a tense work environment. Favoritism plays a huge part in getting promotions at this company. The people they choose to put in leadership positions have no authority to be there. They have horrible grammar, speech and communication skills. We do not get paid enough for all the hard work we do. The company is extremely profitable and growing like crazy, and yet cannot afford to pay their employees more money. Instead of paying for snacks, catering and TV's they should pay their employees more and provide stock options to EVERY DEPARTMENT. Employees feel unimportant and under appreciated because they are!

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.
