If I say you will know who I am ;) - Anonymous employee Sorenson Genomics Employee Review

Great place to work and learn

This is fake because I apparently have to submit a review

This company is good to work for. It's small (~110 employees). We get together quarterly for a free lunch so we can hear how the company is doing, and have 3-4 company activities a year, including a X-mas party. The Lab Director is wonderful and understanding, and everyone knows they can turn to her for help and support. Some positions offer flexible schedules. Turnover is mostly due to people moving on, and not due to layoffs or firings; they like to work out issues with employees. Nice benefits. They like to hire from within. Great learning opportunities (Six Sigma, continuing education, lending library, etc).

We used to get bonuses quarterly, but have not in years. Most positions do not have flexible hours due to production schedule. Pay is not competitive. Not everyone is considered for upward mobility, and not a lot of new positions open often. Management seems aloof due to too many meetings and responsibilities, making it stressful for others, especially their support teams. Mgt shirks their responsibilities due to having too many projects going on at once.
