Pros

Well known “Pipetman” that is still used in many research labs, classic pipet that was one of the first to market

Cons

I have seen 4 5-star reviews in the past 2 days, seriously?! How do you explain the high turnover the last 6 months ? Especially on the sales team with 80% of the staff resigning or let go. How do you put together a senior management that does not know how to work with the talent they have. How are you competing with your competitors with inferior products ? How is micro-managing your team and focusing on KPI’s increasing your overall sales when the sales team has no time to do what they do best…seeing customers. How can you justify bringing back “old ideas” and calling them new ? How can you explain hiring less knowledgeable managers in the liquid handling field and not promoting within? How can you set sales targets so unachievable that it makes it difficult to make plan and stay motivated?

Pros

Management is genuinely supportive and easy to work with. Both managers and employees are very kind, approachable, and always willing to help. The culture is collaborative, and it feels like people truly care about each other’s success.

Cons

A number of the product lines are quite mature, and the portfolio could benefit from more innovation and new development to stay competitive and forward-looking.
