Pros

I am currently just over the one year mark within bioreliance and the main pro i have experienced so far is the level of training i have received. my development has been highly invested in. this hasn't been limited to lab based skills, i have also gained many transferable skills being involved in projects outwith the lab. the company is very charitable and always has something going on to raise money and get the staff involved in social activities, eg coffee mornings, tough mudder. the company has recently been taken over by merck, putting bioreliance on the global scale and expanding opportunities overseas.

Cons

as within any company akin to biorelaince, workloads are high and this can sometimes be overwhelming, but there are always resources and support to assist with coping with these.

Pros

I thoroughly enjoy working at BioReliance. Over the years I have had some great opportunities within several departments. And there is excellent opportunities for cross-training. Within my department I also have the ability to suggest projects and get involved in things that we want to do.

Cons

There can often be poor communication but it is evident that they are working hard to fix this.

Pros

Passion about what they do

Cons

management is new some with absolutely no prior management experience and very few years of industry experience. management is either non responsive or into micromanagement.
