Pros

Consistent paycheck, union job with medical and dental insurance. occasional employee luncheons. Co workers do work as a team when things get crazy.

Cons

Unfortunate lack of growth opportunities and expected to work beyond job scope at times depending on lab staffing. There is a high turn over rate for this lab, mainly people returning to college or careers in their field of study. This position requires a bachelors of science degree even though barely any "science" is needed for these job.

Pros

Working at HP Hood for a short of amount of time was a blessing in disguise. The interview was fairly simple, as it went from a phone call screening to then an interview with the head IT admin. Once there, they connect you with every team in the building to make sure that you're situated properly. The people in the office are great, as they'll go out of their way to converse with you and are inclusive on top. The culture and work are very manageable and not overbearing.

Cons

The only con I can say is that you have to be in office 5x a week.
