Transcat reviews

Behind the scenes, it's a free-for-all among lab managers. Quality between labs is inconsistent. Production pushes left me with the feeling that Transcat aims for quantity over quality. Technicians were highly encouraged to do a better job for the customers that had better contracts. The manager of my lab took advantage of state COVID-19 research and development grants to buy RF calibration equipment instead if purchasing them on the company dime during the peak of the pandemic in 2020. My manager walked around bragging about it. The equipment wasn't even set up by the time I left mid 2021.

No chance of advancement if you are a women. Job responsibilities are very regimented, doing anything outside your narrow job description is frowned upon. If a customer complained about service, management would go straight to the dollars that company generated. If it was below a certain amount, there was no effort made to solve the customers problem. Bonuses are tied to the company meeting certain benchmarks, but employees aren't told what those benchmarks are so they are powerless to help meet them.
