Pros

It was close to home

Cons

I worked for this company for 4 years. I started under a temp service and was hired after 19 months of making $8.35 and hour. I worked from 7pm til 7am. Job very demanding. 12 hour shifts and coming in behind someone leaving work from the previous shift for the night shift to finish! Mold technician paid more than the operators who are actually doing all the work. A lot of nights we didn't have boxes, or bags to package the product. No supervisor or management available during these hours. Management didn't care about the employees. They allowed an employee who was not scheduled to work come on the property and come inside the plant to start a fight with a lead person who quit because they were written up because of the confrontation which they avoided and brushed off. I have never worked for a company that allowed someone to come on company property and not scheduled to work to start a fight and not get fired! Only a write up!!! Management only cares about their well being and numbers and nothing else! Company awarded a grant and instead of giving company raises they remodeled bathrooms and built a gym!!! Why???? When I worked on the weekends the AC will be turned off a lot of weekends because management was not working in the summer time! Overall, this place needs a lot of improvement and better care for the employees!

Pros

My experience at Danaher was overwhelmingly positive. Great place to innovate and to see your contributions make a different. DBS taught me so much.

Cons

I don't think there is a drawback to working for Danaher. But everyone has their own experiences.
