      I like what I do day to day but that has nothing to do with Battelle

      Pros

      I like what I do day to day but that is because I am on an interesting contract. As a gov contractor you are limited to 80 hours every 2 weeks. There is a very modest pension if you work there long enough.

      Cons

      No career progression, unfair compensation, employees mean nothing to the company, lots of lip service and no action to make things better

      Pros

      I never found one. I wish that I had but honestly there wasnt one to find. Sorry to say that

      Cons

      Poor management, unfair hiring practices, poor financial planning, poor pay, poor benefits, off site employees are not cared for at all. No defined structure for career progression, no opportunities to advance

      Battelle was a great place to work and build relationships.

      Pros

      I worked for Battelle for about 13 years and have built many lasting friendships. My hours were fairly flexible and the work was the most rewarding. Knowing that what you are doing is contributing to the greater good of mankind is a reward in itself. Battelle offers a pension even if you don't retire from there.

      Cons

      The benefits are not the best. There was no compensation for good work, although there was a 2-3% annual increase. I have found many other companies offering more competitive pay and better medical insurance. There is constant reorganization. At least once a year there are lay offs and sometimes a month later they will start bringing in new people. Everyone is fearful of losing their job.
