Pros
I've been here a couple of years and feel this is a great company to work for whether your in the middle of your career or just starting out. The people are fantastic to work with and very helpful.
Cons
Small company with limited sites but growing in the right direction. Little choices for movement but never the less a great place to work.
Advice to Management
Keep SI Group a family oriented company with great work family balance. Dont' get it into the niche that a lot of bigger companies get into that make working for them unbearable and causes a lot of turnover and experience leaving the company.

Application
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at SI Group (Orangeburg, SC) in August 2015.
Interview
The interview was well planned and organized. There was an initial conversation with the Lead Chemist and the Quality Control Manager. I described myself personally, explained my work history, described my interest in the position, and was given a tour of the laboratory.
