Zymo Research reviews

The recent trend of negative reviews really have said it all. I worked at Zymo for over five years and the company culture (which is negligible) has come to the point where its become incredibly negative on how it treats employees. Hint Hint** ask how bad their attrition rate is, most people that are working there now have less than 1 year at Zymo Research because the turn over is so incredibly high. Over the past year a mass exodus of knowledge from upper management and so on has left because even they too were fed up and found better options, happier cultures. Management being blinded by greed is an incredibly accurate statement here. Its got to the point where its so bad, a myriad of products dont perform adequately as they should (blatant lies can be seen through some of the fake smiles there) . I feel bad for the QC team and marketing who are up to their neck as there are so many fundamental issues. Poor communication all around with multiple people either involved and causing bottlenecks or no one understanding responsibilities and roles. People here will LOVE to create more issues and problems by chiming in with their two cents. Please if you value your mental health and long term goals DO NOT WORK HERE. It’s a recipe for disaster and stagnation. There are some great peers that you will get along great and the work life balance is okay I guess.

Very low pay, limited flexibility (you get 5 days of sick leave total for a year, and there's no WFH option at all). Everyone who's been here for longer than a year is very busy with all the projects they're being asked to do. CEO has no business direction, and blames everyone else around him (aka upper management) for not having one, then upper management blames everyone else for not having a clear direction. It's a vicious cycle. A lot of senior management just got laid off (think COO, CMO level). Not sure they'll be able to stay afloat for much longer.
