Pros

Enjoy my clients. They are decent people to work with.

Cons

Managers are clueless, lazy and arrogant. Don't train much. You have to learn on the fly. High turnover ratio.

Pros

Friendly Co-workers. Friendly, albeit inept, supervision. Reasonable hours. We got to eat chili once a year.

Cons

No acknowledgement of accomplishments. Expectations much higher than training permits. Expected lab techs to be proficient instrument repair techs. Weak links not held accountable for their shortcomings. Expected to pick up slack for aforementioned weak links. Direct supervision basically useless for any questions regarding methods or instruments, left to rely on senior employees. Lab supervisor extremely disrespectful (called employees trained monkeys) General air of indifference in regards to the correct way to do things (just get a result mentality) Left to flounder with no help when it was clear you were out of your depth. Expected to work overtime while supervisors left early. CEO liked to impart his political beliefs on employees during annual meetings. The chili was never that good.

A good start, but not for a career

Pros

- Good place to gain an experience. Better than hopping around every 6 months with a temp agency - Pace has their own environmental labs - They contract out to other companies (get to see experience other companies) without being tied to a temp agency - health benefits, 401k, holiday pay, time off - Some room for advancement within the company -Monthly meetings, even as a contractor. Helps keep in touch with Pace on a regular basis.

Cons

-Incredibly low pay, especially for contract workers. I was a bit shocked when I realized how the numbers compared across the industry. This is not a place to make a career if you want to make a good wage. This is a place to work up experience and move on. They're selling point is "we offer benefits and temp agencies don't!" Well temp agencies may not have benefits, but literally every other job pays better. -High turnover rate that would easily fixed if they just paid employees well. -I'm sure this is manager dependent, but I was not pleased how workplace bullying is handled within the company. - Us vs them mentality with companies they contract with. - Not a good place to work if you have you are experienced. A good place for a pit stop (which happens often) or a fresh college grad. - Health benefits sub-par
