Absolutely a joke

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Coworkers were the only reason to stay

Cons

Absolutely abhorrent pay for the experience required. Yearly cost of living pay raise is always less than inflation increases. Upper management is completely useless and mostly there to oversee with no reliability for help. HR is useless when it comes to reporting issues and fixing things. Lab equipment is often faulty and out of date, often breaking down.

Business Outlook

Pros

Work culture is pretty nice besides the higher-ups. You get to work with other departments so you're not just bound to yours. Easy job. Direct supervisors and coworkers tend to be very transparent and chill.

Cons

Boring work. Higher-ups are insufferable. Lots of out-of-date equipment. Pay is nowhere near what it should be. After 3 months through a temp agency, I didn't get a raise once hired in.
