EAG Laboratories Reviews

No business plan. No employee book. 20% of company is owner relatives with high pay but no degrees. No job descriptions ever provided. Work is as demanded and at will. Inexperienced COO runs lab. COO's MBA paid for by owner at company expense. Company buying competitors. Employees increased revenue by 20% while CEO keeps buying new instruments costing $1-3M every 6 months. Looks like CEO has divided company and will sell Company this year. Raises are 2-3%, but growth is >20% per yr. Employees not rewarded for producing 20-30% yearly growth rate over 7 yrs of existence. Insurance plan changes every year. No stock shares.

No cost of living increases, no overtime but expected to work until job is done. Almost every week we required to work 70+ hours with no extra pay. No benefits for family, children, spouse. Very little communication in company between owner and workers. Very low pay for job being done. Management say that we will get bonuses and to cover overtime and then we do not receive them. They do a good job of covering themselves by not putting anything in writing. No advancement opportunity in this company. There used to be some perks, Team Building to Reno for 3 days and lunches once in awhile. No family activities at all. These have gone away and one can only assume that its because the company is going downhill. Being a small individually owned company the owner has a lot of family on the payroll. None of the family have scientific or technical degrees but seem to make a lot more than the scientists doing the work.
