Pros

Some departments offer the flexibility to work from home a few days a month.

Cons

No growth opportunities and low morale. The company has healthy profits and continues to downsize workers and freeze raises and hiring. After being acquired two years ago, integration efforts have barely begun. Legacy Grifols doesn't share information and is more interested in slashing budgets at any cost. They are also phasing out systems to go back to paper.

Pros

Good for phlebotomy experience Meet interesting people Learn to keep plates spinning Good health benefits, but not enough to outweigh the health impacts Learn working in a high-stress fast-paced work environment

Cons

Have to unlearn working in a high-stress fast-paced work environment High school drama and toxicity, management is the prom king/queen Cliquey dramatic management team Reneged agreements Playing favorites, rules for thee but not for me Private employee info gets spread, often by those who are relied upon to keep it private No work life balance or boundaries, and it's an admitted and perpetually unaddressed fault Have to be made to feel guilty for wanting to leave production, get a break, or go to the bathroom High turnover "Is everyone else working as hard as I am?",-Everyone, and eventually you
