Pros

- The offices and labs are state of the art - Some colleages were supportive - Agri Campus is very nice place to work - Lots of training opportunities.

Cons

- You are left to figure everything out by yourself and management are constantly in back to back meetings - Harrogate Covance dictate everything over conference calls - HR will issue you security passes and tell you everything is fine without actually checking if you you have cleared the background check (carried out by 3rd party company) - Employment was terminated after 6 weeks. I was accused of lying on my application by the head of operations and HR in Harrogate (whom I'd never met). - They call security when they fire you and escort you out like a criminal - If you have a negative opinion regarding any aspect of the company you will be under suspicion. Certain colleages will report your personal opinions to management. - You will be referred to as an 'asset' with no regard for you being a human being. - Very low team morale

Pros

None whatsoever. Everything they advertise as a pro has fineprint that renders it completely useless.

Cons

Wish I could have given zero stars, 1 star feels like lying. The most important thing is that they will mess you over without a second thought. For those who may have just started at the company, quit now before they mess you over. Don't be deceived by the benefits they advertise. Don't think you're valued because they will turn on you the second keeping you as part of the team inconveniences them. They don't pay fairly and blow off people who need to make a living. On top of trash pay, the work environment will have you hating what you do even while you're actively helping people. At PSCs, you're severely overworked and under a microscope. As an IOP, you're underappreciated and taken advantage of. The way they do business is very shady. They constantly have lawsuits against them, Google it. I saw the reviews and didn't listen because I thought a bad job was better than no job in this economy. I was so wrong. For your own mental health, and overall finances, don't work here. EVER. There are other jobs out there that pay fairly and aren't toxic. I found one and am so happy because I could have been trapped in a company going nowhere. Now I am paid what I'm worth and growing in my career, not just stuck choosing between being a phlebotomist, float or a high-stress supervisor. Just wait for a better job. I promise, the trash pay and stress are NOT worth the gas you'll waste driving all over the place even when you're not a float. Just don't do it.
