Nanosphere Reviews

Current Employee – been working at Nanosphere full-time for less than a year

Pros – Pay is OK. Not over worked. I have only been there a few months so my review might not be the same as some of the people who have been there longer.

Cons – The training is terrible.
On my first day I must have read over 25 procedures. No one is going to remember what they read when you do it like that.
 I was shown how to run a machine once and I was expected to know it completely after that. If you ask a certain supervisor a question he just starts twitching and then runs out of the room.
I have walked in numerous times and heard the supervisors gossiping about other employees.

Advice to Senior Management – There are others who are way more deserving to be in charge.

Former Employee – worked at Nanosphere

Pros – To get a pay check

Cons – No communication from upper management.
No one really knows what's going on except for upper management.
People's perception of you becomes reality.

Advice to Senior Management – Turnover the reigns to someone else

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

Current Employee – been working at Nanosphere full-time

Pros – Some employees/managers care very much about the scientific process and producing the best products possible.

Cons – Micro-managing, loss of productivity due to middle management problems, too many people there to draw a paycheck or to lord power over others. Lots of time wasted on communication issues.

Advice to Senior Management – Be more aware of interpersonal relationships of middle management. Foster more career advancement opportunities and peer-review of management.
