Pros

nothing I can think of - might be a good stepping stone for new grads who have no work experience

Cons

I worked at one of the PSS sites and upper management was just awful. Whenever there was a disagreement or simple misunderstanding with the 'client' manager you would get scolded like a little stupid kid. They will put you on a performance improvement plan and will fire you at will. It was an unbelievably demoralizing and humiliating experience. I regret not having left sooner. So much happier now in my current job, especially when I think back of what I went through at this place. No wonder turnover is very high and employee morale is low. Almost all of the PSS employees seemed pretty unhappy and stressed-out although everybody tried to put on a happy face. Pay is painfully low and cost of living is not factored in. This is a really bad choice for any scientist seeking a fulfilling career. My advice: walk away from this terrible company - better yet: run as fast as you can!

Pros

Fantastic department manager. There is always someone available to help when needed. Laboratory managers/supervisors actually know what they're doing and how to help in any department. Completely dedicated to following SOP's and making them better when needed. Managers always hand off the SOP's to the analysts that use them during annual SOP reviews to make sure all of the information is up to date. This made it very apparent that they actually respect the analysts and what they have to contribute.

Cons

Long hours. It was very rare to work less than 50 hours in a week. Upper management doesn't really know a thing about what we do in the lab or how long any given project will take to complete, so there were commonly TAT's far too short than was realistic.
