Pros

The products was way better before the hostile takeover.

Cons

We were forced to switch to using cheap materials in lab, cheap plastic. Being a scientist myself, I would never use their products. Forced, unreasonable and pointless SOPs Favoring selective employees owing to their background Forced monitoring during breaks Selective rules applied to selective employees Bosses expect to be obeyed unquestionably Micromanagement at its peak Every week we were supposed to prepare slide deck and attend a pointless meeting which was NEVER the case before the hostile takeover Would never recommend this company to anyone. DO NOT WORK HERE EVEN FOR A MILLION DOLLARS.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience at the company did not align with your expectations, particularly during what was clearly a difficult transition period. We take concerns around product quality, employee treatment, and scientific integrity very seriously. Our goal is to maintain the highest possible standards while continuing to meet global demands. We recognize that changes to protocols and workflows especially after an acquisition and a transition from a family-run or small-business environment into a more globally integrated corporate structure can bring both opportunities and growing pains. We’re committed to improving communication and clarity throughout such transitions. We are especially concerned by comments regarding perceived inequities and employee monitoring. These are not aligned with the workplace environment we strive to foster. Every employee deserves to feel respected, heard, and treated fairly. If there are ways we can better support our team or correct course, we want to understand them. We encourage you to reach out to us directly at hr_ca@sinobiologicalus.com to share more detailed feedback. Your insights are important to helping us improve. Thank you again for your contributions, and we wish you all the best in your future endeavors.

Pros

The company has a lot of potential increasing its micromanagement capabilities by importing more and more micromanagers in North America

Cons

If you’re eyeing a job at Sino Biological, do yourself a favor and trust all those 1-star reviews. The 5 star rating helps this review to be on top. Management here? Dishonesty is practically a job requirement. Unless it's in writing, consider every promise a fairy tale. You’ll see a new face every other week because the turnover is so high you could swear the doors revolve. They’ll call it “fast-paced and growing,” but it’s just unplanned chaos dressed up in corporate lingo. Forget work-life balance; you’re clocked in even when you’re off the clock, and the HQ in China runs the show down to the second. The products? Don’t get me started. The quality of both goods and the people selling them is abysmal. And the so-called “PhDs” in marketing? They should just gut the entire department like a fish and start fresh (Fish & Fresh!!). There’s nothing innovative, just layers of egos chasing meaningless titles. Oh, and the cherry on top: the whole company bows to the whims of one person. Every decision, big or small, is based on how the wind blows that day. Do yourself a favor: walk, no—run away from this place. Trust all those 1-star reviews—they’re your best guide here.

Pros

Literally there is nothing that you can think positive about.

Cons

They sweet talk at first to keep you on board, then they take all the knowledge and set you up to get laid off. PhD is all they care about. PhD = You get a senior position, no questions asked about how they perform. They favor certain races = think again, because there is a limit where you can climb. No onboarding, no training, lack of support, unorganized yet high pressuring to get work done. All they care about is how much profit you can get them, they care 0 about their employee's growth
