Pros

The work itself is rewarding

Cons

The company has become a nightmare. Constant management changes, redundancies and no one actually knows what they’re supposed to be doing. So much blame thrown around and gaslighting from upper management. It used to be a company full of bright motivated individuals but upper management has done everything it can to demotivate people and suck any joy from the work. The people who work here want to help people but when we are told that we only focus on profitable diseases to line shareholders pockets, it’s a miserable environment to work in.

Pros

Pays pretty well in comparison to similar jobs in the market

Cons

Unstable schedule where you are often asked to come in overnight (1-2 am) regardless of if you have worked the previous day or are off. Basically feels like you're permanently on-call to conduct environmental monitoring. Training is slow. The Micro dept in general is currently understaffed. The job also involves lab work once you are done with your daily environmental monitoring tasks. The work never ceases and the Technicians as a whole has several responsibilities. Promotions seem to come very slowly here.
