      Pros

      year bonus, benefits like multisport paid, home office policy, free days over Christmas. Very good and quick career opportunities for unscrupulous but loyal types.

      Cons

      terrible management, bossing, mobbing on high level. Structure of management - they are very carefully picked people with no skills, but big loyalty, rather aggressive behavior and covering carefully each other. Colleague of mines tries to report incidents few times to HR, Basel HQ, Unions... but no one will really help you.

      Business outlook

      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.
