Pros

1. Great WLB 2. Amazing Colleagues 3. Great benefits

Cons

1. Constant restructure. People always left with anxiety around job security 2. If you are not in a external facing role (sales, commercial, medical) you will never be valued and can be laid off out of the blue 3. Very flat org structure. So you will always wonder your growth opportunities

Pros

Pays pretty well in comparison to similar jobs in the market

Cons

Unstable schedule where you are often asked to come in overnight (1-2 am) regardless of if you have worked the previous day or are off. Basically feels like you're permanently on-call to conduct environmental monitoring. Training is slow. The Micro dept in general is currently understaffed. The job also involves lab work once you are done with your daily environmental monitoring tasks. The work never ceases and the Technicians as a whole has several responsibilities. Promotions seem to come very slowly here.
