Pros

any fresh biology grad can get a job here; anyone with working experience in an established pharma/biotech can get a management position here; Synthetic genes are easy to sell and therefore job is very secure.

Cons

Unless you are at management level, the work load is going to kill you. Low salary. No benefit. Your life quality pretty much depends on your spouse. If you are in the commercial team, just don't fool yourself that you are good at selling. For this company, essentially people come to buy.

GenScript Response

we received a number of very negative reviews recently pretending to be someone who are current or recent employee, such as this one, however we have never had any HR specialist who worked here for more than 5 years, Piscataway site is small, by the time this review was written we only had 1 HR specialist and as it can be imagined she is very upset by this review. As a matter of fact, does it make sense for someone who hates this company so much to have worked here for 5 years?
