Pros

bonus scheme when it's available.

Cons

LGC genomics is in very bad state from a management perspective. I ignored all the bad reviews I saw on glassdoor and joined the company anyway and I regretted it from the beginning. there is continuous conflict within the layers of the company and no scientific vision or direction. the projects are badly managed making it really hard to work on them. the company is always in reaction mode rather then proactive. communication is the worse I have ever experienced despite the efforts from the senior leadership team to make it look like they are trying to keep the employees informed with useless town hall meetings. there is a bulling culture that HR isn't willing to change or tackle or even see.

Pros

Some okay employee benefits but nothing to shout about

Cons

Gobbled up small companies and turned what was a great company doing well in a poorly managed sh*t show. Management had no clue what they were doing and that trickled down to the real workers on the ground who had to run around trying to pick up the pieces
