Pros

I have worked here a lot of years, and was promoted up to Manager level. I feel like Myriad treats its employees well. We have great benefits and the team I work with are great, and work here for the right reasons, the patients. I've received a lot of Manager training with the new training program and it's helped a lot.

Cons

If you cant adapt to change, then this isn't the place for you. We are always going through change. I've noticed the people that cant handle it end up leaving. From my experience the change is for the better of Myriad. The pay isn't the highest, but I get profit sharing so that makes up for it. I was able to finish my degree and Myriad helped pay for that and they have a great 401k plan.

Pros

There is a certain camaraderie in being treated as small, replaceable cogs in a machine with a history rich in questionable ethics. The schedule can be nice if you are willing to get paid less than full time and less than competitive market wages. Benefits have been in steady decline and the supposed forecast from the ivory tower is grim.

Cons

Middle management is too engaged in political theater to effectively do their job. Data itself is politicized and treated as hostages for brownie points with the boss. Upper management literally refer to technicians as "head's", as in: "We need to chop more heads this quarter". The production side of the company is systemically underpaid compared to both state and national averages. The ensuing environment is incredibly toxic and highly prone to political behavior that is appallingly counterproductive.
