Integrated DNA Technologies reviews

-The pay. It is all very hush-hush and dictated by your manager, I would prefer a concrete payscale. From sleuthing around I can tell that raises aren't "fair," BUT if you're well-liked it will be in your financial benefit. -Managers and departments vary. In some departments you have to schedule in a bathroom break and use vacation time if you are 5 minutes late, while in others you are free to eat a Snickers in the managers office whenever you want. -Inexperienced managers. Most of the managers started at IDT right after college, they have no idea how things run in other companies. -Seniority > skills. Employees who have been here since 2000 are the director/manager types. Some of these people are quite inept BUT are well liked (cannot stress how important this is) and have been rewarded with their own department. Some of these departments have two people in them.

Very difficult to move up in the company, all the management is young. Production Scientist work is very easy and a waste of a Bachelors degree. Shift times vary and the compensation for some shifts is not worth the difference. Promotion ladder leads to no where and it takes forever to climb it.
