Vantaggi

- Reputable name in the industry - Decent pay and benefits - Job rotation and training opportunities

Svantaggi

- Race/nationality bias: Advantage if you are of certain race/nationality. You just get more opportunities. Pretty disconcerting to hear certain HR make blatant comments biased towards own nationality. - Identification of "talents" questionable. If you cant perform on the job but are good with your mouth and putting on a show, this might just be the place where you thrive. - Work/life balance out of the question (though dependent on department and how accountable you want to be) - No Job mastery due to excessive job rotation/rotations which were not thought through. Some folks who have been rotated are placed in roles beyond their capabilities but are just smoking through. - Some processes/systems are very inefficient, resistance to change with "this is how it's always been done" mentality. Some decision makers have the "i'm not sure what is adequate so let's just do everything to play safe" mindset. These add on unnecessarily to an already high workload. - Weak managers: Some weak placements through lower/middle/senior mgmt roles. Ability to lead and serve as good role models questionable, resulting in low morale/people leaving. - Plenty of good people left/looking to leave. Yet, many who are not doing their jobs are staying put and even identified as talents. - Some employees are very rude, arrogant and disrespectful to people deemed "beneath" them, because they feel invincible having the backing of mgmt to be groomed into future leaders of the organisation. However, they become very nice to the people "beneath" them when the right people (aka middle/seniormgmt)are around. This creates alot of distrust and dampens employee morale. After all, why bother being a good employee when these are the type of people that mgmt seems to appreciate? And is it a good idea to stay put when these people are going to be the future leaders? This used to be a better place but not anymore. Unless there is a major cultural shake-up, you will not want to be working here.

Vantaggi

Pays pretty well in comparison to similar jobs in the market

Svantaggi

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.
