Pros

-Good benefits -Opportunities to transfer -Very good pay for many positions -An effective, wonderful CEO. Ms. Spisso is a very smart and effective CEO who clearly cares about employees. She is the platinum standard of taking care of business - running a huge organization - while treating people with respect, dignity and kindness.

Cons

-Untrained and often inept department leadership that creates more problems than they solve -Zero organizational employee appreciation - or acknowledgment -Almost no concern for employees as humans. No work-life balance, etc. -Awful, awful HR department that makes everything difficult. Almost NO ONE in HR ever answers their phone or returns calls/emails in a timely manner. Different people give different answers. It's widely known how inefficient and non-responsive the HR department is and that their top leader, Suzie, couldn't care less. This has gone on for years. -All employees have to pay a ridiculous amount of money to park at work, even temporary and contract employees. -Most departments are routinely understaffed, so front-line employees have a much larger workload than they should. -The union seems to run the show in many departments because management and HR are mostly ineffective

Pros

Do not work here, the Boutros lab is the worst environment you could possibly imagine. The leader is a egotistical maniac who has zero empathy and only cares about himself and his ego and 4 Tesla’s which he constantly brags about.

Cons

This is the most abusive, bullying work environment ever. You will be verbally abused! You will be paid far below the industry average Your opinion will not matter at all There is zero career growth Zero professional respect We have 1 staff member leave every month; 100% turn around in one year! Do not work here, it’s just not worth it.
