Made me switch careers - Anonymous employee The Jackson Laboratory Employee Review

The department I am in is hostile to newcomers, holding them back from promotions while they do work that is above their pay grade, and then being told that they would be fired if they could not increase the amount of work they did. It is also extremely cliquey, where employees and management would often gossip about each other and bully anyone who wasn't in their in-group. Management frequently tries to get around overtime restrictions and disability accommodations. If you do not have a flexible schedule, you cannot attend many of the career enriching events that JAX holds, making it harder to advance. I would not recommend this workplace to a person I liked.
