Small "family" lab been in business for 50 years but needs to join the 21st century.
Pros
Small company with owners onsite contribute to a laid back family type atmosphere. Most people show up to work in sweat pants and t shirts. The benefits seem pretty decent and include medical and dental. The managment is very knowledgable about the industry that they are in which comes from the fact that the company was founded 50 years ago by Dr. Galbraith and has grown since then.
Cons
Lack of willingness of owners to reinvest in the company. The lab has been around for 50 years and still operates like it did 50 years ago. Run down and makeshift facilities, old equipment, little to no automation, depressing atmosphere. The lab itself is a maze created over the years by haphazardly adding rooms onto a core cement building. Old equipment is tucked into corners and every cabinet.
