Pros

GenScript welcomes fresh graduate students who want to try something other than bench work. Lots of training and opportunities for self-growth. Most employees are highly educated and well trained in the biology-related fields, thus easy to communicate and work with. Most importantly, the overall working environment is very friendly and everyone's work or opinion is valued and respected. Great company to work for if you are looking for somewhere that can provide you the resources and opportunities to grow.

Cons

The company is growing very fast and you will need to be motivated to keep up with all the job responsibilities. If you are looking for a laid-back 9-5 job, you will probably find working here challenging. For my position, we will have meetings with our China team during evening hours once in a while, however, we do get those hours back for extra vacation days! Other positions may not require direct interactions or evening meetings with our China team.

Pros

1) if you are looking to gain weight, their $3 per day lunch program is the best. 2) Take brisk walks with Managers if you want promotions.

Cons

1) Training sessions and workshops are below standard and very unprofessional. Can't understand the speakers most of the time. Always have technical issues with Skype business calls. 2) Kitchen during the lunch time is very hostile for non-Mandarin speakers. 3) Commission structure is always a moving target. As soon as the Management (in China) finds out you are making more commission they will change the rules to reduce the commission. Employees don't have a say, it is more like a Nazi ruling. 4) HR are best friends with Managers, so nothing remains confidential.

I would like to thank you for the detailed feedback, glad you liked our lunch program, and we hope you enjoyed the brisk walk too because that's what keeps us from gaining too much weight. We are sorry if language barrier is the main reason for you to leave. we are an international company, although we work with English we try not to be too strict at non-working space. I agree that communication with management is not always easy, which you will find same in your second job and so on, but direct communication should have been the best approach. Lastly, we think cultural unfitness is the top reason for people to leave companies, it has nothing to do with salaries, benefits or how smart people are, we wish you best luck.

Pros

Onboard training plan: all-inclusive, explicitly lays out clear training schedules on a day to day basis, and a clearly expected outcome by the end of the introductory period. Also a well-balanced combination between lecturing and hands-on handling. Corporate workflow and platform: well established yet nimble, guarantees seamless intra and inter-departmental collaboration. Especially valuable for a global company with business worldwide. Work environment: everything is fast-paced and can be completely new. BUT you are not alone, there is a team standing behind you with full support. Others: competitive insurance plan, snack bar, lunch program, birthday perks

Cons

Highly competitive, but is completely normal and desirable for corporate growth
