Unprofessional Atmosphere - Anonymous employee Hemo bioscience Employee Review

Salary I am sorry that you felt the need to publish such a negative review of the company and your employment experience. Following this comment we reviewed salaries and hourly rates for all employees separated in the past 3 years and found them to be in line with the size of the company, location and job title/responsibilities. A bonus plan has been in place based on company growth for the past 6 years and this has consistently paid 10% of base pay putting most employees over industry rates. Benefits In the past 3 years, small companies’ benefits situation has been particularly challenging due to the Affordable care act disallowing direct reimbursement to employees for medical and dental benefits. Following the change in the law our employees were compensated with an annual pay increase of almost $6000.00 to purchase medical and dental insurance on the open market. I find your comment about lack of benefits to be disingenuous. Recently and since the ACA exchanges have deteriorated, Hemo bioscience has recognized that employees needs have changed and now offers group policy coverage under UHC. Human resource The “off color remarks and inappropriate comments” statement is worrisome to me, Hemo bioscience does not have a Human resource department per se, but does have a policy manual which states categorically that this type of behavior will not be tolerated. We reviewed records for the past 3 years and could see no incidence of this type of behavior being reported to a supervisor, manager or the president. On the other hand we made note of the fact that you enjoyed interacting with your colleagues on a daily basis and enjoyed the atmosphere of motivation and success. Growth In the past 4 years Hemo bioscience has developed 4 new medical devices which have been cleared to market by the FDA. International sales volume has grown over 30% and the company has relocated into a new GMP manufacturing facility doubling the capacity for output. I find your comments about lack of growth to be misstatements. Advice to anonymous former employee Firstly I make no apologies for controlling costs inside the organization, my responsibility to my employees is to ensure they have continued employment and an opportunity to grow. Secondly please learn to spell the word “Desperate” or use an online spell checker.
