Unethical, Bad Management. Steer Clear
Pros
Decent pay, especially for an early career. Global leadership is awesome and has somehow managed to keep bonuses alive (except they get sued by hundreds of government agenices for fraud and lose almost all of them, but that was mostly previous leadership).
Cons
Local SLC QCmanagement disappeared for 2 years during covid. Things got more productive due to a lack of interference in the lab. After management returned lab quality and turnaround time got worse. Management is good at taking credit for others accomplishments and even better at deflecting responsibility for failures and throwing subordinates under the bus. Equipment is falling apart, and facilities are in disrepair. 30% of workforce has been laid off in last 5 years, so expect to accomplish at least 1.3 jobs each week in an already demanding 50+ hours/week industry with bizarre and complicated new product launches. Management will try to brainwash you with 'this product makes a difference' but its honestly just acne creams and testosterone patches. High turnover (25-35%ish per year). Overt racism and religious discrimination. You will overhear racial slurs. 60% of department is LDS but no LDS leadership. Longer tenured employees are toxic and aren't productive. Lots of new positions and titles and bonuses at the top, but few at the bottom. QC is the worst and most toxic, other departments in SLC are okay.
