Pros

The only reason to work here is if you can't find work else where. The best thing about Neogen is that you will notice how good you had it at your last job. Neogen will make you're new job feel like a blessing. Thanks Neogen.

Cons

I've given NEOGEN five years with a start pay of 9.50 and when I left I was making 12.55. Neogen's theme song is 'Another one bites the dust'. Neogen is a revolving door that can't keep employees because of low pay. In the five years I put in I've seen more then 40 people come and go in the shipping department. This is high school all over again. Promotions based on who you kiss up to. Hard work doesn't ever go noticed and often times deadlines are short and the workload is over bearing. Department meetings are only held when something bad happens. It feels like only bad things get noticed. Morale is very low. Management expects miracle for next to nothing. Upper management doesn't care about employees, even those that bend over backwards and give it their all. Random drug test are only preformed when they are attempting to fire you. Sexual harassment is not uncommon. Don't expect to retire here. Don't expect hr or management to have your back.

Miserable experience.

Pros

Decent entry level pay, good benefits.

Cons

Poor work environment and working with people who were content to be silent and miserable the whole work day. Mandatory overtime, and the hourly wage is not enough to get anyone who doesn't absolutely need that particular job to stay.

Pros

It's good experience for food safety fields. There is possibility to advance quickly to Territory manager when hired as inside sales.

Cons

Pay is highly variable and unfair amongst coworkers of the same position. 'Old school' way of doing things. Expanding fast but trying to keep up I guess
