Pros

It is a good entry role into the sciences. Location is quite easy to access.

Cons

Micromanagement is rampant within the lab, previous reviews by others even confirm this. False reporting by management is very common. At no point will anybody attempt to hear your side of events. If you do not fit into specific demographics you will be targetted until you eventually leave or are dismissed, whichever is sooner. Click culture is highly prevalent, if you do not fit within said clicks you again will have a target on your back. You will be singled out and be made to feel small. Managers often shout at staff or speak in a condescending manner. Those who fall within these clicks will have their mistakes covered and you will be hung to dry. Minor mistakes will be emphasisYou will be constantly watched, leaving the lab even to grab water will be a problem, so be prepared for dehydration headaches.
