Pros

I've been with Hach for over ten years now in a variety of technical and commercial roles. I took the first role as a temp job while I looked for something else, but the mission, vision, and people kept me here. I now have a rewarding career and MBA, all thanks to Hach.

Cons

Expectations are high. People do a lot of work but that's what makes the company so great. Tends to weed out the lazy people.
