Don’t waste your time

Pros

The people you work with are great. Good opportunity for experience. The parking situation was good for this location.

Cons

This job is good for experience and nothing else. If you actually have bills to pay, don’t waste your time. Upper management is extremely disorganized and cant seem to comprehend what actually goes on in a lab setting or the cost of living in the Bay Area. The wages are comparable to fast food wages, minus the demand in work. They constantly increase work load while barely supplying adequate training and pay to accompany it.

Not so great

Business Outlook

Pros

PTO and benefits start immediately

Cons

management is terrible and doesn’t help when workload gets stressful, but they expect you to take the heavy workload without complaints. There might be times you have to learn how to do something yourself because management won’t teach/help you. The procedure documents are very vague and not helpful, especially during training period.
