Bio-Techne reviews

Low wages, average benefits, terrible employee review process.

Benefits have gotten worse. Our health insurance has been reworked twice in 2 years - and not for the better. Our PTO system is also pretty ungenerous. And they stopped the holiday bonus. Very high turnover. Pay is not competitive - and the system for administering raises has little to do with individual merit. The best people either leave or have to threaten to leave to get better compensation. Work culture, access to resources, opportunities for promotion/growth vary a lot from department to department and manager to manager. A manager who is willing to go to bat for their team and who can navigate the endless red tape and procedures can do a lot for their department. If you are interviewing here, look for signs of an engaged manger. Upper management is pretty out of touch with the actual work flow in the labs. I've never seen my manager's boss actually visit the labs. Unfortunately this is the person who needs to sign off on any major changes or promotions.
