Good Learning Experience - Office Admisnistrator Michelson Laboratories Employee Review

This laboratory has a great reputation in the food science and dietary supplement community in Southern California. Therefore, the lab is always busy with hundreds of samples to prep and test in the microbiology lab every day. This is strictly a routine microbiology testing lab so there is no research experience to gain. It is a fast paced environment for young graduates and undergrads to gain their initial lab skills in a real world environment. This is not a long term work place, however, there is a lot to learn here...

OT about twice a week. Low wages (close to minimum wage, remember this laboratory is also willing to place you in a position to learn tests and practice skills you will need down the road. The tests performed are not too complex so wages match the skills/knowledge needed accordingly) High turnover rate

I really liked working here. All the workers and coworkers here are friendly.

Management here is horrible. They are very demanding .If you make a small mistake they won't forgive you, you better start looking for a new job before they fire you. A lot of overtime is expected.
