They will waste your time - Biological Technician Genesis Laboratories Employee Review

They are great people to work for.

Not a lot of vacation days

A great opportunity for any aspiring wildlife scientist/specialist. Research involving animals takes employees to both the laboratory and the field. Research projects are conducted in other parts of the world (India, Kenya, etc.) and Genesis pays for travel and housing expenses and also increases salary by 30% while you're there! The research often deals with preventing neglected diseases that you otherwise would have never heard of, but that cause a lot of problems for a lot impoverished people. The company makes sure that you are properly vaccinated before you hit the road. It is rewarding to know that the work being conducted might potentially save some lives. You also get to be involved in vector and invasive species work on the domestic side. Novel techniques to control invasive feral hogs and problematic ectoparasites highlight some of the domestic work. Management provides training, but also employs a "hands-off" approach, allowing employees to problem solve and grow as scientists. The company regularly publishes research findings, so you might have the opportunity to add a couple of research articles to your CV in the future. Also, it is a small company, so everybody knows everybody, and decisions can be made rapidly without having to have tons and tons of meetings.

The building is on a hill and the wind can be outrageous. Other than that, I don't have many complaints. If you're looking for a cushy desk job, Genesis probably isn't for you.
