Pros

Strong benefits package while working in a challenging environment with talented people. There is strong opportunities to grow your career if you are willing to work hard.

Cons

There are three typical politics. Too few people doing the work while the majority takes credit for the work. The company keeps forgetting its values and behaviors and focused solely on financial results.

Pros

Pays pretty well in comparison to similar jobs in the market

Cons

Unstable schedule where you are often asked to come in overnight (1-2 am) regardless of if you have worked the previous day or are off. Basically feels like you're permanently on-call to conduct environmental monitoring. Training is slow. The Micro dept in general is currently understaffed. The job also involves lab work once you are done with your daily environmental monitoring tasks. The work never ceases and the Technicians as a whole has several responsibilities. Promotions seem to come very slowly here.
