Pros

Berkeley HeartLab offered the opportunity to work with caring people and some were very good at their jobs. We felt we made a difference in patient's lives with new technology that helped lower their risk of heart disease.

Cons

There were many changes around that time and it was tough to tell what direction the company was going. We weren't always sure why we were doing what we were doing.

Pros

The schedules were very flexible for the most part. Colleagues are very bright and helpful. The size of the company created a very close knit environment where interdepartmental communication were frequent.

Cons

Since the acquisition by Quest Diagnostic, Celera has slowly deteriorated. As benefits slowly aligned with corporate Quest Diagnostic, it became very clear that Celera was no longer an appealing place to work. Medical benefits offered is the bare minimum. Quest Diagnostic only observes 5 holidays per year.
