Skip ETS - Analyst ETS Laboratories Employee Review

I have worked at ETS for a decent amount of time, and continue to enjoy my experience. Because we work with so many different wineries and perform a wide variety of analyses, the job itself never gets stale. From an outside perspective, ETS may appear to be a large corporation. In actuality it is still a family owned and operated business. Because of this, we have the pros of a big company like stability and structure, but also the benefits of a small business like open-door communication and responsiveness. For the employees, the company prioritizes and rewards hard work. Those who understand professionalism, productivity, and have a good attitude will be successful. Management is approachable, and makes an effort to know each person on a first name basis. Some other general pros are listed below: -Good benefits (health, vision, 401k) -Competitive compensation -Yearly bonuses -Can make the job a career Overall ETS laboratories is a great place to work.

The one con of the job is that harvest season is tough. However this is not exclusive to ETS, and anyone working in the wine industry is already aware of the workload and hours required for the yearly busy season. Winemakers have a short timeframe to manufacture all of their wine each vintage. Because we are assisting the industry as a whole during that time, sample load gets particularly busy.

High possibility of making good money.

When I asked people who had working at ETS for longer then a year, "How do you put up with this awful work environment?" the answer was always, "For the money." If you are highly motivated to make money by working long hours, putting up with extreme stress, and are able to stay loyal regardless of how your job is negatively effecting your personal life, then this job would be a good fit for you. To be fair if you do put up with the aforementioned then management will "take care of you". Is your daughter sick and you can't afford special treatment? They will take care of it. They are generous the way The Mob is generous. All you have to do it sell your soul. ETS is not a place for everyone, you will fail at working here if it is not a good fit. If you answer yes to these 2 questions do not work here, you will fail. Trust me, I did. 1. Having a balanced work/life equation is important to me. 2. I expect to be treated with respect and dignity at my workplace.
