Good overall with some glaring issues

Production scientist

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good company culture with lots of fun activities and events, okay benefits, encourage good work/life balance, promotes good environmental practices with recycling/sustainability initiatives and solar panels, promotes ESI/personal growth/DEI/community engagement/etc. Many people who leave for other companies due to salary, etc. have come back (grass isn't always greener/pros might outweigh cons for them)

Cons

Some weird office politics with favoritism/nepotism for promotions/hiring/firing, can be clique-y, low salaries, constant construction/remodeling, stuck in certain way of doing things and not wanting to change due to a "CEO's way or the highway" mindset. Lots of old guard who've been with the company for decades and many newer people but lots of turnover for employees who've been there for a few years due to low salaries/benefits or office politics

Business Outlook

Pros

Quality products, never had to worry about inferior products. Tech support and customer support is great. Incredible health insurance.

Cons

Upper Management changes in 2018 led to less creativity in sales and lots of neurodiverse creative people left including me. Now it’s all about “contribution” and fitting in a box instead of running your territory with your strengths. Very little upward mobility. Compensation is much lower than industry standards.

Depends on Team and Manager

Business Outlook

Pros

perks outside of salary (gym in each building, wellness center onsite for routine blood draws or urgent care needs, pleasant desk spaces although most places have been converted to touchdown/shared spaces)

Cons

poor pay compared to other equivalent companies and positions depends on team, some teams cut throat privileged workforce that has only experience working life through Promega low accountability
