      Pros

      -Good experience for entry-level or temporary contract -You can get exposure to a lot of different areas if you put in the effort -It's a very interesting industry if you're interested in science and chemistry -Sometimes they'll take out employees for lunch or coffee, but they stopped doing that after budget was tightened

      Cons

      -Very unsafe, unfriendly, and toxic environment -Unsafe environment for females because male-dominated company -Lots of firings, unexpected let-gos, people quitting, replacing full time employees with temps, people disappearing and no real reasons are given -"No reference policy": if they give a reference letter, it will only have your original job description from when you started (no special projects or extra duties you took on), it's very difficult to get any kind of reference from management even if they admit your work was good -Management does not try to make professional relationships with employees

      Pros

      Unlimited vacation is a perk.

      Cons

      The company has serious cultural and leadership issues, particularly around accountability for inappropriate conduct. There have been significant concerns regarding a senior global employee’s behavior, including inappropriate sexual relationships with employees across multiple countries and concerns about misuse of position, influence, and company resources to support his behavior. The fact that these concerns were reportedly allowed to continue raises serious questions about the company’s commitment to "safety". Reporting concerns to HR was not viewed as an effective solution. A workplace cannot maintain trust when employees believe power and position can shield predatory behavior. Employees should also be aware that compensation expectations may not align with reality. Bonuses that employees work toward throughout the year will not be paid out as expected, and communication around these decisions has been unclear and last minute. Overall, leadership has appeared disorganized, unqualified, inconsistent, and lacking direction.
