Pros

There is not one single pro to working at azenta

Cons

The salaries and raises are abysmal Benefits are average at best My two managers who do not work at my site, have NEVER called/emailed me to have a casual “Hi, how are ya, how’s your weekend, do anything exciting ?” conversation. I NEVER hear a word of praise from either of my managers. Oh but let me slip up and I will find myself sitting in front of HR being written up. Womyn have the upper hand and men are expected to be submissive. If you are a guy, do not EVER attempt to stand up for yourself, you will be knocked down real quick, most probably by a womyn Empowering employees is not a known concept at azenta, I feel like a 12 year old. On the rare occasion when we are thanked, it is through a pizza party, SERIOUSLY !?!? Anyone who gives azenta a 4 or 5 star rating works for HR and everyone knows it.

Pros

Collaboration: The cross-functional collaboration here is genuinely one of the stronger aspects of working at Azenta. Whether you're working across departments or geographies, people are generally willing to show up and work through problems together. It doesn't feel siloed the way a lot of companies do. Culture: The culture feels human. People actually seem to care about each other, which isn't something you can say everywhere. There's a level of psychological safety that makes it easier to speak up, take initiative, and do good work without constantly watching your back. Leadership: Leadership is visible and accessible in a way that's not always the case at companies this size. There's a genuine effort to communicate direction and keep people informed, and you can tell the people at the top actually care about the mission.

Cons

Compensation & Benefits: Compensation and benefits haven't kept pace with the market. For the level of skill and experience the company expects, the total package doesn't always reflect that. If you're coming from a larger org or comparing offers, it can be a sticking point. Onsite Presence: The expectation around onsite presence feels out of step with where the industry has landed post-pandemic. Flexibility is limited, and for roles where remote work is fully viable, the requirement to be in the office regularly doesn't always have a clear business justification. IT Equipment: You don't get much say in your hardware or software setup. For people who do their best work with specific tools or have preferences around operating systems and devices, the one-size-fits-all IT approach can be a real friction point, especially in roles that are heavily computer-dependent.
