Pros
Great benefits, advancement opportunities, and great people. I believe the company is a great place to work as long as you do not work inside the lab organization.
Cons
I once loved coming into work but it’s now become just another job. The integration centers in Edwardsville are on the brink of failure, in my opinion, due to poor lab management over the past 3-4 years and high growth is not an acceptable excuse for this. Even if management didn’t see the growth coming they still had opportunities to force a slow down and get the right systems and processes in place to properly manage it. Does the quote “Slow down to speed up” ring a bell? Instead our leaders continued down an unsustainable and unscalable path leading us to where we are today. The overall sentiment of the warehouse and lab workers appears to be at an all time low while dysfunction is at an all time high. Management seems to be out of touch with reality. People are leaving in large numbers and WWT appears to be downplaying it all. I hope I’m wrong and the company has plans in place to take decisive actions to fix things but based off of responses so far, the company doesn’t seem to acknowledge that they have a big problem on their hands in the labs and Warehouses. There is a lack of transparency by our managers and it’s been detrimental to our success as a lab organization. When executive management is finding out about our widespread problems years after they started, it’s either a transparency problem or it’s just incompetence. Ignore and discount what I’ve mentioned but the employees who are providing the feedback through all channels, including their managers, are the voice of the majority at these locations and they are truly being ignored.
