QPS Reviews

I was repeatedly harassed by an older PI, who insisted that because I was a married female it was "[my] duty to give [my] parents grandchildren", and other related comments. I reported him to HR a few times and even had to text my supervisor to get me out of uncomfortable situations in the break room a few times. HR ignored it. Pay was lower than it should be and my final year there I got a less than 1% raise despite a perfect performance review and told to be grateful because the company didn't have to give us any raise at all. It felt like the company didn't like letting people take off without a ton of notice (if you already had assignments scheduled, you'd disrupt the workflow by taking off- but assignments were scheduled months in advance sometimes), overworked people, and didn't want to let me use my sick time for medical procedures I needed to have done- I was encouraged to just make up the time later that week instead. Didn't really seem to care about employee's health during the early days of the pandemic: they implemented shift work for a while but you couldn't really distance in the labs so there were several Covid-19 outbreaks. You can get promoted relatively quickly, but will not be paid what you deserve to make and benefits are pretty average. Benefits weren't the worst I've seen, but I also wouldn't classify them as generous.

They dont know how to train new comers. Everyone there hates it. John kolman and HR sent out an email trying to force us to improve glassdoor ratings because everyone was complaining about being vastly underpaid compares to any other similar business. They think the solution to everything is a pizza party.
