      Pros

      Amazing instruments and staff with years of experience and knowledge. Open to flexible work from home style.

      Cons

      endless restructuring, endless change of strategy. Their employees are asset but the management has no idea what they are doing. I had 5 bosses over 3 years. Sales strategy is really flimsy..

      Screaming managers: Bad place to work

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Employees have a sense of camaraderie Some good scientists Long-term contracts with the government Basic pay is at standard

      Cons

      Upper management screamed at their staff, who are not stupid by the way, had several colleagues who experienced this which is completely unacceptable in this day and age. Lack of basic business intelligence processes, maybe this has changed since then. I didn't even know what that meant until I moved out. Assignments riddled with politics like everywhere else, but since there are no growth prospects here they have nothing exciting to give to new hires so if you are looking to start your career and have some skill and ambition do not do it here. Plus there are lots of barely competent middle management threatened by new hires since as I said there are very limited growth prospects.
