Pros

Flexible work time, telework, good work life balance . It is an international company and sometimes there are possibilities to move inside the company to other sites/countries.

Cons

I consider there is a lack of development for a professional career according some employees aspirations. The salary is not in accordance to technical and professional skills in some of the roles.

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.
