Pros

-Good Salary -JD for biotechnologist has been streamlined to ensure that main operations and not additional non value added work is given to biotechnologist -Good opportunities to move around if you wanted

Cons

-Horrible co-workers with lots of politics and causing a toxic work environment -Sups are oblivious to the politics in their team and act as if nothing happened. -Refuse to listen to the biotechs at all times and think that all faults are in the biotechs (blame culture) -"yes" man culture -good biotechs who can deliver work are not appreciated and seen and most of the times, given more workload than the rest of the biotechs, causing mental health distress and burnout -mental health talks are all 'talks' and no 'walks' -Horrible machinery that breaks down often and expecting the biotechs to pick up the work and rush

Pros

The benefits are great and the pay is better than most.

Cons

They care more about forcing efficiency measures than solving root problems. They want to enact "morale boost" events but refuse to ask why we were unhappy. This year they decided to devalue our pay and our efforts by giving everyone a static 2% raise
