Pros

has reasonable start off pay and benefits

Cons

Pretty strong buddy boy system and conflict of interest. leaders progression story just kind of make you question how much effort the company puts into getting the right people. two cases: 1. i know of a director (well known for having anger issues), who 5 wks prior to getting promotion, threw a glass object at a floor worker. That same director, also had a husband at the time who was the director of IT, at the same location. 2. i know of a individual who went from lead to supervisor in 1 year, was promoted by their former supervisor who now was manager at another site (who pulled that individual to her new location), and that manager was bridesmaid at that new supervisors wedding 3 months prior to promotion.

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
