Pros

They can be flexible with start times. They are willing to teach people with no prior micro experience so it’s a good gig if you’re a recent grad. You get overtime pay.

Cons

Pay is very low. Even with experience they won’t offer much. There isn’t any routine training in place. You just watch your coworkers do the testing but they don’t like it cause they’re either too busy to teach or don’t want the attention. It’s a very awkward environment in the beginning cause you’re bored and don’t know what to do even though you wanna help. Testing can take a while or happens later on in the work day so you have to be okay with staying late sometimes(this is common in a lab env). All you get for personal space is a drawer. Their LIMS is very slow and seems like it’s from the 90s.

Pros

- Mission - Work life balance - Pay - Modernization of the workplace

Cons

- Every year benefits are reduced with terrible and tone deaf justifications. - Added benefits tend only to benefit new employees. - Perception that the company does not value long term employees (suspension of defined benefit program) - Poor ESPP discount - Lack of transparency on how AEIP bonus is calculated - Workflow tools are still extremely cumbersome after years of promises to fix them - Lack of enforcement of hybrid work policy. Many people never come in and are never spoken to about it.
