Senior scientist

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

getting paid, medical insurance and PTO

Cons

Very bad directors and managers. They are hiding themselves and laying off scientists. What do these clown managers do for company? At least scientists do something. What do managers do? Managers in phenomenex are responsible for hiring and firing scientists who are more deserved than them. There are huge Asian connections there, which ruin the entire network. Stay away this comapny.
