Pros

This is literally the worst place I've ever worked at. Pros are you get to work with the bottom of the barrel that want to pull you down to their level and you're able to have a close up view of insecurity, unprofessionalism, laziness, incompetence, backstabbing, immaturity, sabotaging, unethical, and lemming behavior in people at a work place.

Cons

Northside Molecular Diagnostics department has some serious issues and really needs to be cleaned out in more than one way. Management there plays favorites and likes to turn everyone against each other. They love drama and constantly made up lies about me and other people who worked there to try turn people against each other. It's sad because the manipulation from the manager and from the most insecure people I've met in this field caused a lot of drama to make their sad existences exciting for once. This place has an extremely toxic team who likes to point fingers and make huge problems out of mole hills. They try to say they're a team when they intentionally separate groups of people and create different teams within the team to be able to be against each other still. They try to make everything a problem if they have personal issues with you and if you show any resistance, they try to make things worse by becoming disrespecful and then accuse you of being disrespectful when you haven't said or done anything to show disrespect. Reporting things to HR is useless because they don't do anything about the vicious behavior of these "people". Instead of mitigating issues, management takes sides based on who gossips to her first instead of listening to both sides and coming up with a sound solution for everyone to make the workplace peaceful. I've never seen a manager as embarassing as the one at Northside due to poor leadership and management skills. They are also constantly trying to embarass employees who they don't like by having underhanded meetings berating them. Advancement opportunities are scarce unless you're one of the favorites. Merit does not actually matter at all here. The manager here e went around telling people I would never make more money than what I made at Northside. Insane to have a manager who was 30+ years older being so immature and ill informed about everything and it speaks to the quality of work/workers she has on the Molecular team. Also, mainly older people work here but they all still have the mindset of 10 year olds, so if you do choose to work here just make sure you are extremely immature and you'll be fine.
