Pros

For the most part, I enjoyed the people I worked with. I was given the opportunity to train on additional pieces of equipment and receive a modest raise with each skill I acquired. There was a lot of opportunity to work overtime, and it was unofficially required during the busy season.

Cons

The pay wasn't very good. You were required to work overtime in order to make a decent living. The lab was somewhat unprofessionally run, with a lot of gossip negatively affecting the workplace environment. There was a lot of unprofessional behavior, overall, that was allowed to take place.

Pros

Great bosses, structured support from corporate office, workload is manageable compared to other labs I’ve worked for, overall culture is good

Cons

Benefits and pay aren’t great, particularly the benefits, they’re a little pricey and outside of preventative care, don’t cover enough imho, 401k is very low to where it’s almost nonexistent

Pros

Company allows all employees overtime

Cons

Racist head of maintenance, dysfunctional management, zero organization, HR violations constantly. The amount of times I was cursed and yelled at by older analysts was insane.
