Pros

UL is a great place to work. There is an overall feeling that people should be themselves and bring their best self to work. The employee benefits are good, you can work from home as needed, great medical benefits and tuition reimbursement.

Cons

No big cons. We just need to continue reaching for the stars.

Pros

You can literally sleep walk through the day, in a zombie like state and do your job good enough to keep it if that's all u want. You don't have to care, because no one else does either.

Cons

Where to begin. Cronyism / quasi nepotistic hiring and promotion practices. Period. Every knows it. If u aren't a chosen one, regardless of your resume and current performance / qualifications and initiative, then you will not be promoted or even make a lateral move. You will not even be considered seriously because they have already chosen someone to allow into such positions and they are typically young and highly inexperienced or a good Ole boy. UL acquired CTL a little over a year ago and the transition has been a complete disaster. We are now a second class pile of dog crap in comparison to real UL. We also are not getting paid in the same level as UL. Current upper management is completely inept in more ways than I could describe. To make it worse, they are also at the mercy of a hands off UL management team and the results of this are obvious to anyone with half a brain. Working conditions in this lab are very poor. Poor air quality, leaking roof, trashed looking, disgusting bathrooms, stained carpets.. I could go on and on. It's a joke they call this dump a lab. It's embarrassing. Best thing that could ever happen here is an F5 tornado leveling it. The I have been here a number of years and its long overdue time for me to leave. Sadly, we could spend hours describing the problems here and what really needs to change but the reality is that no one cares. Period. Oh and wheres my raise we were promised UL???? Good christ.
