Pros

Some of the support staff could be kind at times. Very quiet.

Cons

The business only has around 10 employees and the owner will micromanage absolutely every aspect of the business to within an inch of its life. The only time I felt as though I could breathe was when he wasn't there. He called a group meeting because somebody moved a stapler and I was reprimanded twice for moving a roll of glad wrap. I've never seen somebody with so little trust for their employees who are all extremely highly educated. At one point he literally attempted to ban any non work-related conversation in the laboratory. Never have I been made to feel so unsupported or small in my life. I would not wish this place on my worst enemy.

Pros

You will learn how to survive being micromanaged on a daily basis. Colleagues are lovely, and trying their best, you can learn a lot from them. Unique organic synthesis work. and instrumentation.

Cons

Management is dreadful. The reviews you see here are accurate - every day is a challenge because you never know what mood the boss will be in. If it's a bad one, avoid him at all costs and pray he has meetings all day. The main lab is horrible, dark, dirty, reeks of the chemicals being stored. Workplace procedures in general are extremely dated. The lab chemical management software is only used to pin blame on people, and you will find yourself looking for products that don't exist or should have been thrown out years ago.

Pros

Interesting work with good facilities

Cons

Again all previous comments are true which result in a very sad and horrible working environment. Excessive hours without pay or reward or recognition, and this is expected. Lots of psychological mind games used against the employees.
