Pros

Nice Campus. Many talented and nice people throughout all levels and departments.

Cons

Horrible miscommunication between departments. Very low pay for extremely high expectations. Lots of conflicts of interest due to acquiring too many partners labs and basically selling against themselves. Salaries and exempt/non exempt status completely out of line with a lot of favoritism based on personal relationships. Unbelievably Poor upper management throughout most departments and divisions. Allowing some people to work hard for very low Hourly pay while others earn extremely high salaries and recognition for taking recognition of lower level employees work and ideas. Poor Marketing department with too much outdated marketing information and material.

Pros

Loving co-workers, Family environment, Working under a great supervisor!

Cons

VERY POOR pay, let's say the income I am currently receiving is an income I'd expect for a teenager not an adult. No room for growth unless you are working in the white collar buildings, other departments are treated as peasants from what I see and hear. Sadly, they ask for more and pay less. This is not the place to work if you are a parent, you will struggle to make ends meat if you come to work here.
