Pros

I have had the most pleasant experience. The Executives have been up front and honest on the status of the company. Pleasant folks to work with and for. Each team member seems to have a heart dedicated to the company that allows the work to flow as best it can in the position the company has found itself in.

Cons

Uncertain on the outcome for this company, yet there is positive all around with great hopes as Genelex provides a great life saving service that has been beneficial to me and to others. I expect to see the company grow and blossom.

Pros

Like a few other reviews stated, it's a great place to work to gain experience. It's an excellent atmosphere for recent grads or those looking to get their foot in the door of the industry. The company fosters a very friendly and open culture - you can expect to make friends easily. There is the opportunity to wear many hats, so you can be introduced to a variety of work. People are passionate about what they do and make a real attempt to keep everyone motivated.

Cons

Unfortunately, Genelex suffers from an inconsistent business plan. While management attempts to hear from everyone for input, in the end the company suffers from a lack of clear direction. Previous rapid company growth has made them ill-prepared to handle tougher times with a bigger company. Wiser, more conservative individuals are ignored in favor of "pie in the sky" and "get rich quick" ideals. It causes a lot of hassle for the rest of the workforce to readjust every time plans change - which is often. There is also this unstated expectation to be stressed with your workload. If you're not stressed, you must not have enough to do or you're not being proactive enough. Burnout is a major issue - but this could be resolved once the company recovers from their recent economic hardships and reevaluates their staffing strategies. And while they'll try to convince you otherwise, the pay is not consistent with the market. They likely will make the argument that if you factor in the benefits package, it all averages out to being about standard. But anyone who can do a Google search can easily see that there are better gigs out there that pay more for less stress and more stability. They really don't put a lot of effort into maintaining their "valued" employees, which leads to a high turnover rate. Eventually they will recognize that in order to get the kind of caliber of employee they're looking for, that they'll need to invest in paying them a decent salary.
