Pros

The engineers, admins, and certain scientists. The only reason why people stay is because everyone can relate to how they feel about this company. They like to give opportunities to newly fresh grads.

Cons

If you want to live a long life, stay away. There's a lot of hazardous chemicals with limited safety protocols. Becareful of upper management and directors (especially in the bio department) because you will get micromanaged and blamed for experiments not working. You will start to question peoples backgrounds if you start working here. Like the other reviews, expect to stay late when projects deadlines hit and write AM/PM reports of what your day will be like.

Pros

- exposure to numerous government agencies and research institutes - wide range of instrumentation training and use - 50/50 split between lab work (DOE, data collection, building apparatuses etc.) and office work (data processing, presentation, technical report writing etc.) - network builder - practice of non-research-related skills such as interfacing with vendors, shipping and receiving of samples, ordering parts, buying instruments from sales reps etc - multidisciplinary projects worked A-Z for excellent big picture experience beyond the day to day tasks - ability to publish research work - some supervisors are highly qualified, very passionate, proven scientific people that are excellent to work for

Cons

- sometimes straining work environment - generally a lack of hands to produce top quality work consistently - excellent career experience for 1-2 years but a tough outlook beyond that - nepotism - great medical and dental but no bonuses, 401K, or financial incentives for engineers - upper management does not always set a professional example - upper management seems unmotivated to grow the company... content with keeping it where it is - very difficult to implement changes to the status quo of things. upper management does not take kindly to suggestions from engineers
