Pros

Good benefits, nice gym, quiet

Cons

They hire managers that have no idea how to communicate. The HR department will not help you at all. You will be blamed for everything and treated like garbage for seemingly no reason at all.

Pros

A new building, however offices are small, labs are limited

Cons

The company has very low employee morale, inexperienced micro managers, and inexperienced employees. The HR is very unorganized and desperate to hire due to very high employee turn over. Employees work long hours and the atmosphere is constantly negative. They frown upon vacation time or days off, very little room for growth, and most positions require a 24-7 availability, which they are not upfront about in the beginning- Experience might be different in Bar Harbor but CT location is known to be miserable
