Pros

Routine job, no stress and be able to spend time with family

Cons

No work flexibility and give H1B visa workers with a low salary, very political working environment

GenScript Response

sorry that we lost you, marketing is suppose to be a rewarding job but it requries effort, so I regret that you did not get the most of this position and I hope you do better in your next job. And, our H1b workers receive the same level of salary as you did for the same position

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.

GenScript Response

thank you for sharing with us your thoughts, we are glad to hear the positives, and we appreciate our employees taking extra effort on the night time meetings; we try our best to minimize them.
