Pros
Automation. That’s it. But you can get this literally anywhere else.
Cons
They do not prioritize employees, lab techs specifically. Corporate doesn’t know (still, several years after it was instituted) that techs work weird shifts and weird hours (10hr days Sun-Wed, Wed-Sat) so if a holiday falls on the weekend good luck getting it off. Supervisors do not know their platforms and that’s how Neogen likes it. They only want supervisors that they can manipulate, it doesn’t matter what skills they have. When I say most of them are dead inside and do not advocate for the people they manage, it is no exaggeration. I saw nepotism, favoritism, gaslighting, straight up lying (all from supervisors/management). They say they’ll give you bonuses (for example, they offer a referral bonus) but you will likely never see that money. I never saw mine. No one at this company knows how to communicate. I’ve seen managers communicating negatively with a person over Facebook and they were never reprimanded. Instead of firing people who absolutely should be fired, they ignore the issues or they give them a lateral new position.
