Pros
Some good instruments in the lab. Canteen and building is nice. No problems parking. Good place to get experience in first laboratory job. When you walk out of the building you leave your work with you. No stress of work for the next day and working in evenings at home etc.
Cons
Absolutely zero interaction between owners and staff. Director would walk past you and not even say hello. Huge gap between pay and respect of technicians and managers. Bad favouritism problems with in the company and a bully culture. Meaning that people kiss up to supervisors and can avoid work. There is no clear progression strategy to be promoted, purely done on if they like you. Working late shift or weekends. No sick leave means that people phone up when can’t be bothered to come into work.

If you want a laid back, research type lab job, that you can flexi-time, this is not the job for you

Pros
Great building/facilities. Great people. Very friendly. Small enough where everyone (nearly) knows everybody else's name. Lots of different tests and equipment to learn.
Cons
MD hardly there. Can take a while to go from equipment to equipment, but that depends on the individual's skills/capability.
