Pros

There is always work to do. It’s very hard to get fired.

Cons

Entire workplace is totally filthy and not cleaned frequently or thoroughly, even after covid. -Mask wearing is not enforced in the workplace, not everyone wears one. -no hazard pay or compensation for traveling workers, pay is already so low for the extent of work that we do. -manager can be unprofessional and holds grudges against others in the workplace. does not take criticism well. Workers are kept in check with intimidation. -upper management is hellbent on meeting revenue goals and are willing to cut corners in the service product. They are too detached from customer or employee needs. -change only happens until issues are escalated by customers. For an “innovative” company they are embarrassingly reactionary. -training program is a complete joke, remote learning for this job is ineffective and results in techs who are incompetent in basic skills long after they are hired. -there's no such thing as company culture. little is done to keep morale within the team. -there no space to move up within company even if you are a top performer, no career advancement implemented whatsoever making this job a dead end -It’s difficult to take time off, management only lets a certain amount of people in the territory off at a certain time. -if you do decide to work here, know that they are just like every money-hungry company. if you do 110% they will only make it harder on you and keep you running. you won't be rewarded for being a good worker, nor will you be penalized if you do poorly.

Pros

Good benefits. Good clean environment to work in. HR team is fairly helpful. There are some reasonable priced lunches available at the on-site cafeteria.

Cons

Lots of 'back-slapping' amongst Management - rarely there is recognition of hard-working problem solvers. Questionable employees are not disciplined -- seems if you get in worth the Germans, you're safe. Lots of friction between Enfield employees and people that moved up from New Jersey. No training program to speak of. Lots of 'German' speaking in front of Americans. Also, loud employees on the phone do not have consideration for neighboring co-workers!

Pros

- Good benefits - Autonomy

Cons

Eppendorf tends to be very archaic, segmented, and poorly managed. The parent companies drive is to be a leader (make as much money as possible), but does not want to invest in good employees, is unwilling to change old fashioned practices, has no real training programs (if promoted, you are just thrown into the new position without training, being informed of important contacts, or current issues, but expected to help deliver revenue), and the company is very segmented, both from a local organization perspective and a broader international level.

Pros

Travel and field work made this position interesting. Networking at these locations a plus. Pay was decent straight out of college with no previous experience besides a bachelor degree. Company car was a plus - No miles to put on your personal vehicle. Great training program on the east coast. Easy work and great benefits. Good starting point out of college.

Cons

Repetitive work, no career advancement, travel sometimes long or cross country, locations widely varied on work available.
