Pros

Occasional free lunch with a cost

Cons

Worst lab experience I have ever had in my professional life. You’re worked like a dog and then thrown scraps of a free lunch on occasion. Basically they have to offer you something to make you think it’s a great place to work but you may as well commit suicide than work for a path group that vaguely makes you think they care about you. It’s about their bottom line of money and only money! Do the pathologist believe what they’re saying? I seriously doubt it! They’ll have one of their mindless drones leave a flowering comment to offset this review, but you’ve been warned. If you don’t mind slaving for low wages and a potential tiny bonus then have it. Oh and you want get the same bonus as everyone else! It’s all a pathetic joke and a web of a never ending trail new employees. Did I mention people just walk out & never look back! Work at Amazon or Trader Joe’s or Starbucks! You’ll keep your sanity in tact. Remember when you’re on fire what to do! Well imagine being on fire & no one to put the fire out. Got it now!

Pros

I’ve been with Arkana for several years and have been very happy with my career journey here. I started in an entry-level role, and within my first year, leadership encouraged me to grow within the department. They consistently provided constructive feedback to help me improve and sharpen my skills. Arkana offers employees fair and equal opportunities to advance through programs like their leadership training initiatives. The company places a strong emphasis on collaboration and open communication through regular feedback channels like surveys, performance reviews, and town halls. They also demonstrate genuine care for employee well-being with generous PTO and thoughtful perks that create a positive, supportive environment. It’s a healthy workplace with plenty of room for growth and development. Most importantly, Arkana’s dedication to patient care stands out. The team goes above and beyond to deliver accurate, high-quality results with quick turnaround times while maintaining strong communication with healthcare providers to ensure patients receive the best care possible.

Cons

Chaotic workflows: Like many fast-paced labs, things can feel a bit chaotic at times, but leadership continues to work on improving processes and structure. Cross-Department Communication: At times, communication between departments can be a challenge, but there’s been a visible effort to improve collaboration.
