Pros

PTO is good. The benefits are decent. Coworkers are friendly.

Cons

Eurofins Lancaster Laboratories is run like a sweatshop. Corporate officers fully acknowledge that the pay is low yet they do nothing about it. They have quarterly rewards like a free order of french fries, but your salary increases per year don't even cover the cost of living increase. The starting salary is like a slap in the face. The starting salary for the Department in which I work is widely known to be at least $20,000 per year below industry standards. Management recognizes the disconnect, but nothing is ever done. In fact, the corporate greed is growing at alarming levels. They put higher and higher demands with each year for growth and instead of using that company to invest in maintaining employees, they build new buildings and only seek to line their own pockets. As soon as the opportunity presents itself, I will be leaving with a smile on my face.

Pros

It’s a great first job, you will get a lot of training.

Cons

Pay is absolutely unacceptable, promotions are not metric based, just where your name falls on the list and if your group leaders like you or not. Too much stress for too little pay. You’re constantly being rushed to meet TAT but quality matters right? Management does not care to change things, in all the years of its existence nothing has been standardized within business units or outside.
