Pros

Great work / home life balance. Nice coworkers with healthy work relationships. Generally stress free envirnment. Bi-weekly car allowances for using personal vehicle to travel.

Cons

Behind the scenes politics ruin what could be a perfect work experience. No room for advancement. No yearly evaluations or raises. No cost of living raises. People with far less experience always get hired in making a hefty amount more than you per hour, and to add insult to injury they force you to train them. The higher ups don't seem to care how loyal, hard working, or committed you are to the company. It doesn't matter how long you have been working for them...they refuse to pay you what you are worth no matter how many times you ask for fair compensation. Always short handed due to this fact.

Pros

People are very friendly and generally helpful. With 1800 offices and laboratories it's a huge network across the globe so depending on the role one could speak to people in 10 different countries per day.

Cons

Pay is low, information is hard to find in all these SharePoint sites, could be hard to develop and progress.
