          Pros

          I pursued a position w/Meteor based on personal and Glassdoor recommendations. I'm so glad I did! The culture really IS that amazing. Leadership is supportive, open, and transparent. There are opportunities to grow, learn, and advance. There's a big focus on benefits and maintaining a positive work/life balance.

          Cons

          There could be some improvement in connecting goals and creating more transparency across functions - seeing how it all ties to overall organizational goals.

              Pros

              There are no pros to speak of

              Cons

              Extremely low pay, about half of industry/market average. Deceptive hiring practices. Mandatory drug testing required, regardless of state, local laws, or job type.

              It is true that the reviewer accepted a role contingent on taking a pre-employment drug screening and then refused the test. Was released after their first day on the job. Interesting that one would accept a job at “half the normal industry rate”. It would always be recommended to read the employment offer and perhaps not to accept a position if you do not intend to abide by the terms offered.

                Pros

                For the first time in my life, I can say I love what I do for work. It's pretty cool to be able to work for a company that makes a difference in children's and educators' lives. The connection, friendships, learning that I have had over the years are incredible. The CEO truly cares about Meteor Education and it trickles down through leadership. Pretty great to be able to work remote too!

                Cons

                Not much! More appreciation is always appreciated however, especially during these difficult economic times.

                      Do you experience that how long the hiring process would take at Thermo Fisher? I got my second interview with hiring manager at the beginning of November but I haven’t heard nothing from them. When I’ve emailed them to check in they just said that the process would be slow, no time frame. I would be able to get an offer soon from other company but work as contractor. Should I wait for Thermo Fisher?

                      Booz Allen Hamilton Recently applied and I've been referred for an interview! Any tips on interviewing with Booz Allen? And if I am being asked to complete clearance and background upfront, is this a good indicator for being hired?

                      Alex L.

                      Applied for a job a few weeks back, got a call from HR yesterday morning about an interview next week. She mentioned she'd shoot me an email with all the interview details, but so far, my inbox is empty. Assuming I'll hear from her early next week, is it normal for them to expect me to show up for an in-person interview on short notice, like couple days?
