Advanced Testing Laboratories Reviews

Current Employee – been working at Advanced Testing Laboratories full-time for less than a year

Pros – Luckily got placed in a position with hands-on use of instrumentation and method development. Good first year work experience to put on a resume. People in my group, contracted off-site, were friendly.

Cons – Pay is simply horrible. It's a joke. Management is useless. There is no upward mobility. Raises are skimpy. Benefits are lip service. Heard working on base (at ATL headquarters) is awful.

Advice to Senior Management – Teach your managers how to manage. Upper management, push for better pay for employees so your retention issues lessen. We do good, hard, advanced level work and should be paid well for doing so.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm not optimistic about the outlook for this company
