Pros

The shift differential was good, you get $5 more from 5pm to midnight and $6 from midnight to 5am. The health benefits were great.

Cons

When I worked there it was constantly understaffed in the lab which made it easy to get burned out. They also didn't pay for technical support on nights and weekends so if you were working one of those shifts and an analyzer broke down you had to figure it out yourself.
