Pros

Great way to gain experience in the Biotech industry.

Cons

Manipulative and lying management. False promise of a "bonus". Senior management does not value the employees and the hard work put forth. Company will step on engineers to make a quick buck. Every employee is replaceable. The training is poorly conducted and not communicated well. HR does not notify the employees of any changes and updates made to company procedures. HR department needs improvement. The company HR associate needs to improve her communication skills. Always talk down to the engineers leaving a feeling of worthlessness. Engineers make money for the company, show them respect!! Extremely long work day (12 hours) - management says the long hours and accumulated overtime will be taken into consideration when its time to receive a "bonus". Fun fact - there is no bonus (found out the hard way).

Pros

between projects, Savis does not get rid of you. They keep you around for the next project. Some companies only keep you during the project as a contractor and when the project is over they lay you off. I like their loyalty. If a company is loyal to me, I can be loyal to them. The upper management and people I work with are awesome to get along with. Everyone takes their job seriously and professionally. We go wherever we are needed for a project. We are not confined to one location which makes it interesting. Before I was hired, I was asked if I was willing to relocate or travel for projects. It was not hidden from me but was discussed up front. I appreciate a company like that. I appreciate the company giving me an opportunity to be trained as a Project Consultant/Engineer even though I was limited in experience. Overall I am satisfied with Savis.

Cons

No dental insurance or 401K.
