Pros

A company that cares about its employees more than the business and has strong Christian beliefs. Flexible with life changes and offers career paths for any employee.

Cons

The process of producing the product is an ongoing one, so the company operates four shifts, 7 days a week. Some people like this, and others find it a con to the job. The facility is not air-conditioned except in the office area so that it can be very hot in the summer and cold in the winter.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share this! Your perspective means a lot. We’re glad to hear you feel supported and that our focus on people and purpose is coming through in your experience. You’re absolutely right — the 24/7 nature of our bioprocessing work isn’t for everyone, and the temperature swings can be tough. Your honesty helps us keep improving and making sure our teams have what they need to thrive. And thank you for the encouragement. We’re committed to protecting and strengthening the culture that makes POET special, and feedback like yours reminds us why that work matters. We’re grateful to have you on the team!
