BPD - People are great but the workload is ridiculous
Pros
-People are very friendly, general environment is almost family like between people. -There are lots of employer benefits and team activities. -There are showers for people who cycle to work. -There is a restaurant and gym on site, with discounts for AZ employees. -There are lots of resources available for self-improvement*.
Cons
-* although self improvement resources are there, no body has time for self improvement. -The requirements for a new employee to get a position are lower than those for promoting a current employee to that same position. -Lack of communication and understanding between the work teams do. -The general culture is to give everything you have - most people have far too much on their plate and no time. A lot of people work overtime often and aren't at all acknowledged for it. And yet, everyone is pushed to continuously take on more work. I have never seen so many adults cry at work from stress. -Lab safety is a joke. People don't report injuries and near misses that don't require medical attention under the excuse that they do not have time to deal with the paperwork and inquiries that follow.
