Pros

1. Irvine facility has a park with its own pond with turtles, fish, and rabbits. 2. You can put on your resume that you have pharmaceutical, and medical device experience (since the company is technically both). 3. There are many humble people so you'll make good friends and lasting memories here. 4. on-site nurse. 5. 3/4 schedule available, night shift available, and 4/10s schedule available. 6. Bonuses available to everyone, although your percentage will vary. 7. Culture follows standard operating procedure like bibles. 8. three times your hourly wage if you work on a holiday.

Cons

1. If you are the hardest working, you probably will not get promoted. Management cannot afford to fill the void you will leave. Also promotions will go towards others since it's better to "give the baby his/her bottle." 2. While there are a lot of humble people, there are even more that are uncooperative. You will find yourself wondering how Person A ever got hired/promoted to his position now. 3. Political moves from different business units, it is as if we are not on the same team: Competition among each other foster an unfriendly environment. 4. Kick off meetings about what management wants to improve. Within a year, those original meeting attendees have jumped ship. Time to start the same kick off meeting with a new set of people. 5. Lack of communication from management.

Pros

Great company, pay, and work life balance. A great way to transition out of bedside nursing.

Cons

Travel all over the US two weeks out of the month as a part time employee so you have to know that going in.

Pros

Not really much to say other then that if you like working 12 hours a day just for only 3 days in one week and then 4 days the next week, you're not really making enough to cover income.

Cons

Not guaranteed overtime. You could sign up for it and the odds of getting it is very limited. Not guaranteed to get hired on and they could end assignments anytime. You don't make that great of a pay and even if you do get hired on, your options are very limited when it comes to be certified in different areas and you don't have a choice to where you want to be, you end up being in a position that you don't like due to poor management.
