Business outlook
Pros
• Low barrier to entry • Work is not too hard • Great for students and recent graduates • Well accommodating for those with limited English
Cons
• Constant layoffs, mass hiring, opening/closing locations • Many associates are aggressive and constantly worried about losing their jobs • No long-term goals. Senior management makes decisions based on short-term situations • Dishonestly throughout the hiring process. The recruiters promise quick contract-to-permanent, just to get hired and learn that Cepheid doesn’t offer it • Lack of diversity. Almost everyone is either Filipino or Vietmeanse • Too much favoritism • No career growth opportunities • Lots of gossiping
