Pros

Hard work is recognised and rewarded Chances for progression and training (grading system, and internal promotions favoured over external) Week-long training academy offered with paid accommodation Close-knit work teams who support each other, including management who always have an open door and listen to anything you wish to discuss. Chance to finish early if all work is complete Weekly communication meetings between lab staff and management where staff have the opportunity to raise points and suggestions about improvements, operations, lab requirements etc. ALS core values I started my career with ALS with an apprenticeship, which soon became full time employment. After 18 months of hard work, genuinely caring for my team and the work done, and some very stressful busy times, I was finally rewarded with a promotion to team leader. Passion, loyalty, and appreciation of the job and the quality of the work you do gets you far. For me it then landed me with a Section Head position after only 2 and a half years. Since then I have had a flexible working request granted to accommodate my home life which makes me feel extremely valued and appreciated for the work I have done over the years. ALS have also paid for me to go to seminars, training courses, and group meetings in order to further my knowledge and experience.

Cons

Busy environment Can be stressful Sometimes overtime is needed to finish the work Staff morale can be brought down when busy, especially when people want rewards and benefits before they have done the hard work. If you are patient and gracious you will get it!

Thank you, we are glad you like working at ALS and that you appreciate the efforts we make in recognizing hard work and dedication. It is an unfortunate reality of working in a seasonal industry that we have to adjust staffing levels when the work gets high/low but we are informed that majority of our staff welcome overtime but we do appreciate the fact that this can lower morale for short periods of time.

Pros

Pretty much veryone is on the spectrum, so not much small talk is expected, noise-cancelling headphones and fidget toys are the norm.

Cons

No pay increases. Like none. Ever.
