It’s not all bad

Pros

Im left alone for the most part, allowed to do my job without nitpicking from higher ups unless I actually mess up. The people are cool for most part. The shift differential for night shift is really nice. It certainly offsets the lower base pay I make. They recently implemented holiday pay as well.

Cons

There seems to be a bit of favoritism from management. Complaints you would make about a certain person (whoever that may be) have a tendency to get back to them along with who complained. The pay doesn’t equal the work. As an associate level tech, I do the same job as everyone else and make a significantly lower wage than the bachelor’s level techs. A 5-6 dollar difference between a new MLS and a new MLT.
