Great People but not much opportunity to grow

Business Outlook

Pros

The people at Genzyme Diagnostics are friendly and easy to get along with. Everyone is very helpful. This makes for a great working environment.

Cons

Not much opportunity to grow career-wise. Advancement is a frequently a long, years of service-based process regardless of achievements. Decisions from the higher ups are communicated at the last moment and take most people by surprise. There is a definite disconnect between management and employees.
