Really dislike all of the staff, very poor poor management, and a bad place to work especially for a long period of time. There’s no equal understanding and not a promising future, They deny minorities chances to advance with the company

Great leaders of the program, Jess and Raf, they still keep in touch with past interns
good envrionemnt, had living provided and cahrlie car
got very close with other interns (network for life)
Cons
Training was long and the mentors shoudlve done it too
some of the departments are clicky and some mentors suck and skip through the training
Pays pretty well in comparison to similar jobs in the market
Cons
Unstable schedule where you are often asked to come in overnight (1-2 am) regardless of if you have worked the previous day or are off. Basically feels like you're permanently on-call to conduct environmental monitoring. Training is slow. The Micro dept in general is currently understaffed. The job also involves lab work once you are done with your daily environmental monitoring tasks. The work never ceases and the Technicians as a whole has several responsibilities. Promotions seem to come very slowly here.
