Pros

Humbling experience & you gain nice information about certain things, made a few friends. Please know your worth, because they won't.

Cons

I don't know where to begin, but working as a lab assistant in college was better, was paid less but was treated better & learned much more. There are no trainers nor events to be trained, you will be thrown into the lab on the second week. If you work well, you get to go into Path lab (better, but hard work). Management was poor. HR will tell you to communicate with the leads, managers, etc but won't understand that they are the actual problem. For some, the title got to their heads & I have not seen any of them do work or show us how to work. Biased & personal opinion was that some coworkers were really under-qualified to be working there & also show inappropriate behavior, yes these were brought to management twice by the same group of girls.

I would appreciate a phone call so that I can determine which location and then thoroughly address the issues - specifically with the leads and managers. Thank you in advance. Bob Cox, SVP, HR

Pros

Experience, it’s a good place to start if you’re trying to decide what career path you want to take.

Cons

Training is all over the place. Management is nonexistent. Doing a lot of work for subpar pay. Would not recommend for a person with a bachelor’s degree to work here for poor salary,

Food Safety Net Services Response

Your feedback is very important. Our employees and our customers are at the center of all we do. At FSNS, we work hard to create a culture where our employees are happy, engaged, valued and appreciated. We continue to look at total compensation and adjust accordingly. I hope you consider talking with your LM or Regional in the near future to discuss your concerns or you may contact me directly. Thank you. Bob Cox, SVP HR.

Pros

My coworkers were the best part of this job

Cons

Very fast paced work with not enough staff. It was very common to work through breaks and to work overtime. Overtime was not always allowed and management would be upset if you worked overtime, but they would be upset if the lab was behind. It was often a guessing game as to what management wanted from you. The schedule changed wildly so it was very tough to have a good work life balance. Quality was also not very important as we often had to use broken equipment and contaminated media. There was a lot of favoritism and it is hard to get promoted. There is also minimal training.

Food Safety Net Services Response

Dear Toxic: We are indeed a fast paced, 24/7 environment – and we realize it is not for everyone. Sometimes overtime is needed (which is welcome by our management team when needed and employees are paid for it). We are proud of the fact that we are an essential business/keeping food safe. Many of your statements and allegations are concerning and candidly untrue, specifically those in regard to quality, training and equipment. Regardless, I will be sure to share your comments with the RLM, RLD, TM and Quality Team. Customer service and our employees are at the center of all we do. All the best to you on your new opportunity. Thank you. Bob Cox, SVP, HR
