Pros

CEO and CFO are both great and competent guys Excellent instrumentation in lab Great co-workers outside the lab High potential to be a great organization/lab

Cons

High turnover of talented employees, TROUBLEMAKERS REMAIN Fears of unionization are warranted due to HR practices - not even handed or good listeners Politically competitive and unhealthy work environment due to incompetent Supervisory personnel playing favorites and 'snitches' i.e. Supervisors are the problem not the solution (incompetence). Lazy and trouble-making employees are favored above committed, competent, hard workers who speak up on behalf of the hospital patient's.
