entry - DNA Scientist Source BioScience Employee Review

The only pro I can think of is that I was based in the US and only had to deal with the utter toxicity of senior management in punctuated moments when they visited. The new CEO does actually seem to be a positive change. I couldn't hang around long enough to find out, but he did have a lot of positive effects prior to my leaving. If you compare the benefits, salaries, leadership, competencies, quality of services to that of other similar companies, there really aren't any 'pros' to talk of.

A particular director that is so incredibly narcissistic, incompetent, toxic, belittling, and incapable of leading one person let alone a team. This person has done so much to harm the morale and attitude of the company, I would venture to say the downfall of this company (which is inevitable) rests mostly on his shoulders. There is no respect for the commercial management, yet they demand it openly. There was never the slightest bit of guidance or wisdom offered from those in positions of authority. Just about everyone in the company speaks so poorly of the commercial management at Source, it's almost comical. What else... There is zero focus on what the company actually wants to accomplish. The services offered are just commodities and the technologies used are very outdated.

´At will´ agreement. Good fellow trapped workers.

They will make your work odd shifts without regret or care or accommodation. No gratitude / compensation for any extra work. You could be working in research field and could be assigned a marketing sales task across the country, without even bothering about your convenience. Your salary is a joke. Christmas bonus is a luncheon because you sacrifice for the company. (yes you get that answer). Horrible behaviour and disrespectful environment. Background check a company before you get hired. Short term employment will harm you more than the company. If you still accept their employment, you asked for it!
