Good people, poor practices, thankless job - Tissue Culture Technician Conception Nurseries Employee Review

Pros

The people are great, some of the best people I ever got to work with so far.

Cons

There is a clear lack of communication and disconnect between management and production. Management is more concerned about numbers than workers' safety. They have ramped up goals without having proper ergonomic processes for technicians. People are sustaining serious and chronic damage to their bodies for minimal recognition. The company is understaffed and constantly asks people to go above and beyond their pay grade. If they could make you go in on Saturdays to work, I think they would. They sell you on work culture but work culture is deteriorating as well. People who have been there the longest have been told that they could move into research, but that is no longer happening. There is not much room for career growth or opportunity to move up.
