Pros

They are somewhat flexible and they always allow you to makeup your hours so you always hit 40 every week.

Cons

Poorly run, extremely unprofessional, give you more work than you can handle, volume not distributed properly amongst the teams, expect you to do way more than what they're paying you for, not worth the stress, new software launches hinder performance, only concerned about KPI and timeliness, poor wages

Pros

Sterility Assurance at SGS is great for a first job out of college to learn about GMP and the CRO lab setting. It can be a solid second job out of college as well if you are looking to put in the work to move up quickly. The management while I was there was quite good. The pay has increased a lot since I was there.

Cons

It is a physically demanding, busy job with a fluctuating schedule. The management that was there while I was working there is now gone for Sterility, Bioburden, and Microbiology. This was caused by a poor hiring at the director level.
