Pros

Its a fun company with beautiful ocean views all day. It's very unique company where you'll develop a very interesting skillset involved with this narrow market. Profit sharing, full benefits, and a great family discount on product.

Cons

Not great pay, sometimes loss of direction

Pros

Cyanotech actually works toward making people feel like they're important and cared about. Poor performance is coached and worked on until it no longer can be- Good performance is rewarded. Benefits are fantastic for all employees and pay is competitive. Profit sharing and stock programs are unrivaled by any company I've worked for. Leadership is taking this company in the right direction.

Cons

Some lack of new/ modern equipment, but it's on an upward trend.

Pros

Type of work is important as it's making purely natural products. Collaboration between departments is good at the non-management level employees.

Cons

Management has "lead by fear" culture, which causes high turnover. Not open to changes. Management says they have "open door" policy, but it's really chain of command.
