Pros

My direct supervisors and colleagues were nice. Projects are in an interesting field, though not interesting to me nor ones that I could contribute significantly. There was a Laissez-faire mentality between my operating company to the main company.

Cons

Being a part of a service group, the organization and communication between the group leaders and the analytical chemists were poor. It isn't true in all situations, but it adds to that wasted time.
