Pros

The benefits are great (good medical, dental, vision, life, corporate discounts at major retailers, etc.); since LabCorp is a large corporation, there is room for movement* (vertical/horizontal) and the ability to transfer, unlike a smaller lab. There's also no chance of the lab being bought out (closed down, possibly, but not bought out).

Cons

*Movement entails you having a good rapport with your supervisors (not necessarily your coworkers) and being relatively squeaky clean on paper. Unfortunately, even if you work hard, there's no guarantee you'll be recognized or that your abilities would merit further training to make you more of an asset to the company. And as some reviewers have written, you will tend to feel like a number and will get frustrated that there have been people working there for years, but have no clue what they are doing. Your pay is also significantly less without a degree, even if you know more of the work and do more of the work than someone with a bachelor's or a license. It's common for lower paid people to do more tasks while those that are higher up in the food chain do less.

Pros

None whatsoever. Everything they advertise as a pro has fineprint that renders it completely useless.

Cons

Wish I could have given zero stars, 1 star feels like lying. The most important thing is that they will mess you over without a second thought. For those who may have just started at the company, quit now before they mess you over. Don't be deceived by the benefits they advertise. Don't think you're valued because they will turn on you the second keeping you as part of the team inconveniences them. They don't pay fairly and blow off people who need to make a living. On top of trash pay, the work environment will have you hating what you do even while you're actively helping people. At PSCs, you're severely overworked and under a microscope. As an IOP, you're underappreciated and taken advantage of. The way they do business is very shady. They constantly have lawsuits against them, Google it. I saw the reviews and didn't listen because I thought a bad job was better than no job in this economy. I was so wrong. For your own mental health, and overall finances, don't work here. EVER. There are other jobs out there that pay fairly and aren't toxic. I found one and am so happy because I could have been trapped in a company going nowhere. Now I am paid what I'm worth and growing in my career, not just stuck choosing between being a phlebotomist, float or a high-stress supervisor. Just wait for a better job. I promise, the trash pay and stress are NOT worth the gas you'll waste driving all over the place even when you're not a float. Just don't do it.
