Pros

Great company to have on a resume; Many different resource groups to get involved with; Great café; Incredible society-changing work being done.

Cons

My time at Battelle has been a rough ride. Leadership is very inconsistent and the culture is toxic. I’ve seen people who have poured their entire careers into Battelle get let go because of their age and management wants fresh talent. More than anything, Battelle is absolutely shady and crooked. Unwarranted investigations that lead to dedicated employees being terminated. It’s sad that people give 10, 20, or 30+ years to Battelle only to find out they are just a number and have never been valued.
