Pros

Work from home and great co-workers

Cons

Since the merger and coupled with COVID, the company focuses on reducing cost at the loss of valuable employees. There is too much upper management involvement and no work life balance. Many nights and vacations are spent working. The company requested employees voluntarily work less hours or take furloughs due to their financial position and they removed 401k match. Health insurance is expensive and they have a “use it or lose it” policy for PTO. There are no sick days.

Pros

You are never bored due to constant work

Cons

Lab is run horribly. Sample Management never sees promotions. Starting salary is good and then you’re trapped in quicksand. I was graded as the highest possible rating for my merit increase and got a $0.26 hourly increase. The company doesn’t care about everyone working on the back end of studies.
