Pros

Flexibility with hours, easy to gain experience, co-workers

Cons

Low Pay, Insanely High Expectations, Management is completely disconnected with the work they're managing, benefits are constantly being changed/decreased, Employee turnover.... you name the problem this place has it. I currently perform the duties of 4 different roles and was told this amount of work is expected for my role...

Pros

You'll get a lot of valuable experience with maintaining instruments here because they use dated and broken technology. At the location I worked at they were cheap and would prefer you waste reagents and time on a broken instrument than to just buy a newer one that works. The actual people I worked with were really nice, but the overall culture was awful.

Cons

LOW pay, I mean bottom of the barrel. Benefits are only ok, and vacation time is extremely limited. You'll be expected to work overtime, but then be reprimanded for clocking over 40 hours if it's during one of their down times. Expect to get furloughed in the winter if business slows. Poor upper management and project management. They outsource first level review to unqualified third parties who end up doubling analysts' work load. Another clue that they will literally cut any corner to avoid spending an extra penny. Incredibly high turnover due to all of the above. I was the 5th person to leave in the span of 2 weeks when I left. Don't expect good training, it will be hit or miss and the person training you may be almost as new as you are. Poor managers have no life and work for low pay, but their position requires a masters degree! And they're salaried while consistently working 50+ hours a week. They're so desperate to have employees that they didn't fire someone for pretty blatantly tweaking a calibration and causing months of data to be invalidated. Misogyny is rampant among male leadership. Everyone is tired and sad here so even though you may like your coworkers as people, you'll all be so depressed you won't be able to enjoy it.

Pros

Can’t say much, it’s just like any other corporate job where only the numbers and volume matter.

Cons

Mandatory overtime everyday at Eurofins Microbiology. I was hired for certain amount of hours and was told at my initial interview we would rarely stay past 9pm but in reality we would leave at 11pm-1am. Because of this there is a high turnover rate so they constantly understaffed. They won’t hire the amount of people needed to get the job done any ways. If you have a bachelors you’ll be paid the same as some one right out of high school.
