Pros

Nice people and office space. The people are really nice. Has first class office space. Very interesting field in the marketplace.

Cons

CEO is an MD, PHD that brings Micromanagement to a new extreme. If you are a manager, you can never make a decision without his approval. If you do something without his permission, he will change it even if you are correct. Also, since he has to be involved in every decision, nothing gets done on time so the company is always in last minute fire drill to meet a deadline.

Pros

The people in the lab are great. Good teamwork, lots of young people. Free snacks (almonds and cheese)

Cons

everything else. Let me be clear when I day this. Reprosource is one of the most disappointing, frustrating experience of my professional career. Many of the reviews have cited the CEO Ben leader as one of the main problems. When I went in for an interview, I thought the complete opposite. He'd like a shady salesman. He gives you this great speech about how everybody starts at x salary but you have the potential to earn bonuses by completing milestones! Sounds great however the reality is that in order for you to hit these milestones, you must work extremely long hours. In the end, you ask yourself is it really worth it? The extra hours spent on salary for a pittance of a bonus every few months? Absolutely not. If you're single, I'd highly recommend this job. Having no obligations gives you a great advantage. Also, if you work in the lab, the day doesn't start until fed ex shows up. Some days they come very late, which means regardless of what time you show up you're staying late to finish everything. This company is purely driven on getting as many samples processed as possible with no regards to the integrity of the samples. "say one thing, do another". Oh and have fun with the 38 security cameras that were recently installed, even in the break room.
