Pros

The old pros were: catered lunches, holiday events but that was slowly phased away/

Cons

1. Low wages by industry standard 2. If you are not a scientist/researcher you will be treated poorly 3. Their motto "treat others how you want to be treated" is just a joke. There were some individuals that didn't go by that motto. 4. Lots of micromanagement from upper management 5. Your longevity in the company is purely based on politics and the whim of upper management. 6. Most of the promotions are from within the company and for those that have no background in the field that they are promoted to supervise. (not qualified) Verdict: If you are not in research then don't do it. There is no career growth here.

Pros

They were very flexible with me when I had to take time off and supported the fact that I wanted to expand outside of what was in the job description. I was allowed to work on a marketing project and even started tech support training, which I couldn't finish because of the end of my employment.

Cons

Sometimes the work felt very repetitive in the role I was working.
