Pros

Working here is a good resume builder. Whether you need it to build a work history or you need grad school experience. Also good because you can learn phelebotomy on the job (like I did). You also get incredible experience as a phelebotomist due to the fact that you're sticking 6+ people an hour.

Cons

Overworked, underpaid (considering the skill level and the fact that you're working with bio-hazardous materials). Supervisors and Seniors are always absent and shirking their duties off on other phelbotomists or DFTs. No one is held accountable for their actions (it's almost IMPOSSIBLE to get fired there). Management NEVER wants to come out to the floor to solve problem and instead ignores them. No clear hierarchy structure. Very stressful, high paced environment 70% of the time.

Pros

Competitive pay, easy work, great benefits.

Cons

Unexpected additional tasks specifically for MP’s that were someone’s only job in the past (for 0 additional compensation), toxic leadership (specifically the COM’s as they do not possess the skills to manage people in the way a legitimate manager would-hense why they were only ever supervisors previously) that ended up in the positions they have due to recent restructuring, micromanaging everyone to oblivion, complete and utter disrespect from those unfortunate people in make shift supervisory roles.
