      Pros

      -Flexible vacation time -Flexible hours -Knowledgeable employees. -The pay could be worse but it certainly could be a lot better.

      Cons

      -Incredibly lazy management - most do absolutely nothing all day while you toil over mounds of work. -Horrible benefits - $280/mo for the cheapest plan. -No advancement - the only way you'll get a promotion is if your manager dies or you marry into the EMSL family. -Raises are usually a lousy 2-3% a year. If you make $15-$18/hr, that's like .20 - .30 cents. -Nepotism is unreal. All the higher ups have their husbands, wives, daughters and sons in high paying positions. -Questionable safety guidelines for a hazardous environment. -I'm yet to meet a manager who deserves their job.

      Good experience, but lack of support and bad lab practices

      Pros

      There are flexible hours. Vacation time is decent. A lot of experience to gain from working in the lab. The company likes to sacrifice pay for buying equipment and instruments. This is one advantage from working there.

      Cons

      Terrible pay for recent graduates. Management structure is very unorganized. Lack of support from management when it comes to workload. Quick deadlines (Longest is 2 weeks), but lack of resources to meet these deadlines. Bad lab practices are taught daily in order to rush results in order to please customers.

      Worst company ever

      Asbestos analyst

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Flexable schedule, you can pretty much come and go as you please.

      Cons

      No advancement unless you are a family member or favorite of a mananger at corporate headquaters. Pay varies from person to person when performing the same job. Higher pay goes to employees that kiss up to or mouth off to mangers. If you come in focused and just do your work you will get nowhere here. In most cases new employess make more than employess that been there for years. Hard work does not pay off. No sick time. Benefits are awuful. QC info is a joke. The worse analyst are often the ones that get promoted and move to other areas. Old microscopes and equipment. Bare minimum in tools to perform the job. Safety is not a concern. Can bearly get a raise but hire people for pointless waste of time positions such as various PLM sample prep.
