      Pros

      Decent benefits for health and life insurance

      Cons

      No work available and supervisors don't care. 50 people are sitting at home and they don't answer the phone and if they do they just say there isn't any contracts available so there is high turnover and they act like they can't understand it. They are getting paid and they don't care that the employees that actually do the work aren't getting paid. They promise they are setting up training for advancement in the company. That is always cancelled too. It is a no win situation.

      Pros

      OK pension and holidays. My experience as a Biochemist helped me get another job elsewhere.

      Cons

      SGS culture is to double targets, not get involved then each site is left alone to try to make money to pump into the fatcats in Geneva. The managers of the Biochemstry and Chemistry sections were in place for years simply because they were there the longest. They were psycopath and incompetant yes-man, repsectively. Very high staff turnover and the Wokingham site was the leper of SGS.
