Decent first career

Lab Assistant II (Current Employee)
Indianapolis, IN

I have been working at Covance

ProsVery easy to get started, training is optimal for anyone with a high school education. Management was eager to assign difficult projects to eager employees. Ideas for optimization were met by management with eager ears.

ConsNo real career advancement available if you start too low in the company, mainly blue collar work. Even if you have a degree and have many accomplishments, you will be looked over. Management was horrible at best. No real supervision or management was available over the course of my career. In a performance based department this is not ideal, and many hours were wasted in overtime.

Advice to Senior ManagementAt least in certain departments, supervisors need to supervise, not shop on amazon all day then complain about the work not being finished on time.
