CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Offered competitive pay compared to other labs I worked at. Nice facility, certain managers were caring

Cons

The high workload was hard to manage with constant instruments being uncooperative but the company didn’t want to put in the money to replace consumables. You can only do so much if you’re not willing to make repairs as needed. Expecting people to be able to just magically make things work by trying the same things over and over is not always going to work.
