Pros
As with any job that you cling to for too long, my coworkers were the best part about the job. That's about it.
Cons
Before I began at EMSL, I read the Glassdoor reviews but did not listen. To my dismay, they were correct. PLEASE heed my advice and everyone else's on this page. DO NOT work here. Upper management is all related some way or another - even HR, which makes it very difficult to go to HR regarding upper management or how the business itself is structured. The turnover rate with microscopist was astronomical, and anyone who ran any type of business sector was related to the President of the company, and did not earn their job. The funniest part was that they all had inter-family feuds and it was obvious who in the family hated who. They put their employees at risk and violated OSHA all for the sake of getting a faster turnaround time to their clients. The pay is incredibly sub-par while upper management pays themselves and their family members a very comfortable salary. The office environment is made to feel like big brother is always watching. I cannot say enough about how terribly ran this company is ran and I am not sure how they have coasted for this long without being shut-down.
