Pros

There are no good points. I would strongly advise reconsideration if you are thinking of working here.

Cons

They are totally disorganised. They have good products but that is the only decent thing about this company. I worked myself ragged learning complex instrumentation so I could troubleshoot for demanding customers. I had sketchy if any training. Management requested an honest and candid assessment of the company. When they got it from me I was fired and the job was given to the managers friend. The manager is inexperienced in management and, like many new managers, is trying to come the heavy and be totally across every move staff make. This company is not a good career move. Beware.

Pros

Some hardworking colleagues and some nice people, but the good ones tend to move on.

Cons

The company operates in an unstructured, often chaotic way — policies and processes seem improvised, change constantly, and lack clear communication, making it difficult for staff to stay aligned. Training is minimal, and you’re frequently left to manage complex equipment and high-needs customers without adequate support, which leads to daily frustration and a sense of helplessness. The work environment is toxic, dominated by a blame culture and fear-based leadership. Constructive feedback is either ignored or dismissed, and there’s no meaningful pathway to improve the situation — even when issues are raised in good faith. Opportunities for development in a supportive environment don't exist. What’s most concerning is a leadership style that prioritizes ego and self-preservation over team wellbeing. Decisions often seem driven by personal agendas rather than the best interests of staff or customers. This self-serving mindset creates a culture where safety is lacking, and high staff turnover is treated as business as usual.

Thank you for taking the time to write this thoughtful review. I was incredibly disappointed to read about your experience, so much so that I shared it with our CEO and Executive Team, who shared my dismay. I am most concerned about your statement that there is “no meaningful pathway to improve the situation.” While some situations are challenging, we prioritize the employee experience, and if escalated, we would have loved to help and support you in this situation. If you’re open to it, I would greatly appreciate the chance to connect with you directly for more discussion and learning. Andrea Cline

Pros

There are no pluses with working for Laborie.

Cons

They are disorganised, conspiratorial and have no clear process in place. They do not train their staff and offer no assistance. The manager micromanages. The salary is below industry standard. Nasty unprofessional people.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. I’m disappointed to hear that you’re having such a negative experience. Proper training, clear processes, and transparency are essential to feel productive at work and it appears that we’ve fallen short in these areas. If you’re open to it, I’d welcome the opportunity to have a conversation. I appreciate your honesty and want to ensure your voice is heard. Andrea Cline
