Pros

There's a lot of great people who work very hard. . . these people have no other choice and are enslaved in the HELL of Pace.

Cons

You are forced to use vacation time. Management forces good people to make unethical decisions regarding data by threatening your job. Online training is a waste of time and staff is pushed to do it on their own time. Everything is a number, including employees. 4 cent raises every other year if you are lucky. Micromanaged all the time and screamed at if something goes wrong and samples need to be reanalyzed. As a manager, if you tell them you will not report the data until the samples are rerun you are berated and get "a talking to" by the GM and QAO. Hopefully NELAC/DOH wisens up to their evil ways, if they look at the data I approved they will find a lot of red ink explaining everything.

Pros

Pace had an amazing work environment, the amenities available to employees were far beyond what was necessary for the job. Everyone was extremely friendly and worked well together when group work and collaboration was necessary. Truthfully I was looking forward to working every day being a part of this company! This job helped me realize my passion and helped me decide to attend college for environmental science.

Cons

I personally have nothing negative to say other than the location is quite out of the way for most of the people who worked there. I didn't mind the commute but it was a common topic spoken about in the workplace.

Pros

Good people but all had issues with upper management, and the company entirely.

Cons

Swapped ownership and no longer gives bonuses and, did not address harassment issues seriously enough to resolve it. Due to down sizes 20ish people were let go all who were part time. Injuries were followed with the firing of that person for “unrelated reasons” but seemed odd. I was also asked to do something that did not follow the guidelines I needed to follow incase of forensic use. And employee shouldn’t be asked to go against guidelines and it should have been handled by someone more experienced.
