Pros

Good Pay Flexible Hours but alot of computer work (manager) depending on your manager Great Benefits

Cons

They move you around to different territories and change products on you yearly Promotional opportunities are not there. This is a shrinking industry and manager jobs are few and far between. Sales goals are usually out of reach, and the pressure to attain them is always there.

Pros

Pays pretty well in comparison to similar jobs in the market

Cons

Unstable schedule where you are often asked to come in overnight (1-2 am) regardless of if you have worked the previous day or are off. Basically feels like you're permanently on-call to conduct environmental monitoring. Training is slow. The Micro dept in general is currently understaffed. The job also involves lab work once you are done with your daily environmental monitoring tasks. The work never ceases and the Technicians as a whole has several responsibilities. Promotions seem to come very slowly here.
