Hologic Field Service Engineer reviews

Loss of Gen-Probe bonuses and perks like FSE of the year awarded trips and yearly meetings. Changes in company car program and increased health care costs, I estimated at least a $10-15,000 annual loss in wages due to these changes. Loss of "family feel" with a small company. Now it is all corporate attitude and giving less to the employee, and caring less about the employee, we are just the no-name worker bees now. Unsure if I will eventually lose my job due to the acquisition. Territories are merging and I will no longer have a Gen-Probe manager. My new manager does not know the Gen-Probe products, so will not really understand my job. Also, I fear he will show favoritism towards his own Hologic/Cytyc employees. Gen-Probe stock was high, Hologic stock is so much lower. Gen-Probe was doing great financially as a stand-alone company, now we are merged with a company that has a low profit margin. We used to get great pay raises at Gen-Probe, now we get next to nothing with Hologic.

Company became too big too fast, completely deserted it's core beliefs of a family company, Complete disregard for employees. Stop promoting from within instead choosing to hire management from outside the company, people who have no idea what there charges do or have to go through on a given day. The new idea of management is to seek and find any mistake a person may make to "prove" they deserve a bad review and very small or no raise.
