Kaycha Labs Reviews

Work-life balance, management, salary, value

I would recommend getting as much instrument knowledge as possible and applying elsewhere. Upper management is detached and doesn’t care about the needs of their workers. Lack of safety shower and ventilation. Chemical gas leak caused employees to quit. Little to no communication about the gas leak and it took them two weeks to fix the issue. They also expected staff to work regardless, or take days off unpaid. COO on site jokes about not wanting employees to seek workers’ comp for anything. Lab is dirty, as are the bathrooms. No cleaning staff. Literally relies on analysts to deep clean the floors and break room. Lack of training structure. Instruments consistently break and the company refuses to cover the cost of instrument technicians to repair machines, forcing their under-trained employees to resolve the issues. The worst part is the pay. Competitors pay much better for the same instrument knowledge. It’s evident that Kaycha does not care to retain their employees and they continue to have a revolving door. Their only focus is on gaining more clients and not actually running a sustainable lab.
