Pros

About the only pros are their benefits. PTO is decent at 16 days per year and 6 holidays. Health insurance is great. Retirement is decent with only employer contributions structure.

Cons

- management is clueless to what your workload consists of - no performance based raises -raises limited to once a year, typically 3% for cost of living - HR department turnover is outrageous resulting in a HR department not familiar with employees or company culture - company is constantly growing, which means growing workload and stagnant wages - performance reviews every 6 months but no review of management or supervisors - wages are below industry standard in Omaha - politics of hiring through temp employees gives employees short end of the stick almost always. E.g. temps working without benefits for up to a year before brought on internally - minimal advancement opportunities. Chances to learn other tasks and duties but doesn’t come with a raise. Handful of QC positions and management positions that are tenured and never available to employees.

Pros

Stable job with great benefits. Could see myself staying there for a long time.

Cons

Hourly rate is pretty low. Lots of rumors. Kinda like a big high school in that sense.

Pros

- No cost, comprehensive health insurance. - 2 bonuses a year

Cons

- Everything else about the place. This place is the worst, truly. I can't talk poorly enough about this place and how it is ran. Each lab is different and I think I just got unlucky with the most chaotic, terrible, broey culture in the lab I was in. Me and some former coworkers still reminisce about how uniquely deleterious this place is on your physical and mental health. The day I left genuinely felt like a boulder was lifted off my shoulders. Stay far away.
