Pros

Easy job Good work-life balance Allows for Hybrid working Flexible start hours

Cons

There are brand new associate scientists that make about $4/hr more than people that have 2+ years in that same role. Some of them even make as much as the next position above them. Even the jobs listed online for the same exact positions I'm in are being hired for a higher salary. Apparently, you might as well quit and reapply for your same position if you want a raise, because when you ask a manager for a raise, they'll tell you they don't have the budget for it. Thermo-Fisher's acquisition of PPD also limited the amount of PTO you can accrue and gives us less holiday time off than PPD did pre-acquisition.
