Pros

The salary and benefits are very good which makes it hard to leave. I have enjoyed the territory I have had over the past several years.

Cons

When I came here they were calling themselves a launch machine. During my career they have been unable to bring many products to market.

Pros

Pays pretty well in comparison to similar jobs in the market

Cons

Unstable schedule where you are often asked to come in overnight (1-2 am) regardless of if you have worked the previous day or are off. Basically feels like you're permanently on-call to conduct environmental monitoring. Training is slow. The Micro dept in general is currently understaffed. The job also involves lab work once you are done with your daily environmental monitoring tasks. The work never ceases and the Technicians as a whole has several responsibilities. Promotions seem to come very slowly here.
