Pros

I have been with this company almost going on 2 years, and I have been afforded great opportunities that I don't think I would have received anywhere else. With no prior experience I have learned a great deal about this industry in such a short time and have gained a newfound respect and passion for what i is I currently do. If you're like me then the emphasis on degrees (and by degrees I mean a Master's or higher) can sometimes be discouraging but that's only because this company is very passionate about education. If education is important to you too then this company will help financially achieve those educational goals. The Amarillo lab has been and continues to be a progressive and positive work environment that prides itself on the undeniable strength of teamwork. Despite reviews from some our unfortunately misguided and misinformed former employees.

Cons

Every company has its fair share of cons what matters most is what you yourself are willing to deal with to successfully get to where it is you wan to be. I will admit that the hours can be tedious and the starting pay is somewhat decent however this lab is still in its early stages so that's to be expected. I firmly believe that if you're strong enough to stick it out through the dark days then your loyalty will be rewarded.

Thank you for your comments. Yes, I/we will recognize those who give the extra effort for our customers. The food and laboratory business is difficult. Unfortunately our real work shift begins when a food processing plants ends. Our customers expect us to complete their testing results as soon as possible so they can ship product to their customer. I greatly appreciate all that our employees do for our customers. The success of FSNS is due to employees like you and many others who have a passion for this industry. Thank you for all that you do for FSNS. Sincerely, John Bellinger, CEO

Pros

The experience working at this lab is very valuable. The wide range of training that you will receive is great. You will learn valuable skills that you can take to any job, science based or not. I worked for FSNS for a while before moving on to a job that worked better for my family. I enjoyed my time at FSNS and still try to keep in touch with the coworkers I had. The lab manager is great, she is fun to talk to and she makes sure the lab runs smoothly no matter where she's at.

Cons

The shift that I worked didn't really work out for my family long term.
