Pros

There’s food on site so you’re less inclined to leave the building and can get back to work faster. Good snacks

Cons

Very misleading from the beginning. They say “unlimited PTO” at hiring to reel you in. Our Lead set a hard cap at 5 days a quarter and tracked it religiously. Clearly stated it is NOT unlimited. New Lead showed extremely blatant favoritism amongst team, very unprofessional. They won’t hesitate to fire you.

To clarify on our PTO for employees, we have a generous policy for our labs that allows for plenty of time off while also balancing the needs of our patients. With appropriate notice, people can take off time as needed.
