Ambry Genetics

I love working at Ambry Genetics. Beginning with the work that is being done with the end result, " Curing human disease." Also, management facilitates growth and professional guidance. Not to mention they take care of ALL employees, for example: compensation is comparable to the market rate, There is a smoothie bar and employees are welcome to enjoy free smoothies, nuts granola Ect. Further, the ability to access a state of the art gym  ( Ambry pays gym dues). There is also room for growth, management will help facilitate as long as one is in good standing. The friendships that are formed with coworkers are priceless. Ambry helps give back to the  community too! With there foundation Maui Ola. This foundation donates surf lessons taught by pro  surfers to children diagnosed with C.F. I could go on and on about the positives associated with Ambry, unfortunately I don't have space to write the remainder of what I wanted to convey to jobseekers. In short, Ambry show that they care for you by helping you in a life style of health and wellness.

A typical day at work was processing and organizing lists of potential insurances to bill. We would go through, analyze whether each accession was ready to bill, and then either bill it or put it in another list. We would fill out very detailed forms as instructed, and then send them to the insurance companies. We used both electronic billing and paper billing. 
Management was outstanding. My training was comprehensive and thorough. I loved this job! They were nice to me as well, always saying hello and creating a positive, energetic environment to work in.
My co workers were the same.

The hardest part of the job was analyzing and researching all parts of the bill to see if it was really ready. I had lots of help and support from both my supervisor and my co worker.

I enjoyed everything else about the job. I was happy to go in every day. I was off by 1 most every day and was able to have a work/life balance.

I loved everyone I worked with and had the best experience.  One of my favorite jobs ever. Only reason I left was because I had another job offer with higher pay, but looking back, I miss this place. The team members are great. I had a safety issue and my supervisors did whatever they could to keep me safe and comfortable at work. Free food is a plus!

The lab is fairly large, especially if you’re coming from a small college lab or small company like I did. There are many different departments that work together with their own managers and supervisors. I was in Extraction and Distribution but cross trained in Sanger and RNA. I really loved everyone in my team. We all helped each other when needed and there was never any drama. I learned so much from the scientists who were eager to teach me. Really great entry level lab job. 

I have been working with the company for several years during their corporate transition. It is to my opinion that with the current structure the company poised to lose money. They compromise the existing working community that made Ambry so unique, special and successful and push corporate management on the floor. Many of my colleagues successfully working and contributing to the company have resigned. Urgently needed things can not be done due to the loss of expertise. Ambry looses innovation edge and turns into "me too" warehouse of existing solutions.  

Favoritism by nearly all forms of management, and under appreciation.
Blame being passed on to those that warned of things to come, instead of those responsible.

Abuse of power, and incompetence at most levels of the company.

Before the company really was an enjoyable place to work. But now it’s full of people that can’t or don’t know how to do their job, stab you in the back, and are determined to do everything in the hardest way possible, even at the customer and employee expense.

The CEO is a previous scientist. The COO and Vice President of sales are buddies that and have moved around more then most people breathe air. The culture is very bad, and management is green behind the ears. You do not want to sell here. Hopefully Konica Minolta can reel things in, because company will be bankrupt within 2yrs if not. Average comp plan,  new comp structure that is not achievable to make commission payouts. It's designed that way. More layoffs most likely to come within 12 months.

One of the worst places to work.  Succeeding is talking behind people's back.  CEO loves to say if you see something, say something.  Saying something will get your fired.   The free-thinkers are gone, and the drones remain.  Any improvement seems to challenge management. 
But if the idea works, senior management does not hesitate to take credit.  Do not work here unless you have no goals and lack passion.  Ambry's vision is myopic.  Current SLT is toxic. There is no collaboration and therefore any attempts to be scalable are impossible

Unrealistic expectations, management hardly has any answers when questions about specific tasks arise, one is left to figure it out on own or thru other coworkers. Advancement and promotion go hand in hand in how well one gets along with managers. As a temp employee, don’t expect to be included in surveys or any special celebrations the company has. Managers thrive on scaring  employees with productivity expectations and often remind of how replacement will take place if numbers are not in their fantasy range.

Used to be an amazing place to work. Great people, atmosphere and company culture. However, there has been a  strong corporate shift-- and for the worse. 

Upper level leadership is weak, short-sighted, and disconnected from the employees. Moral is low, and trust is gone between employees and leadership. 

HR is no where to be found, and is not helpful in anyway to employees. They cater to the Steering committee and all they try to do is avoid lawsuits.

Quite a positive atmosphere, open floor makes it easy to communicate with colleagues. Happy people who are always willing to help out and hold meetings spontaneously to fix issues with project. Collaborative efforts go into every project and the dynamic projects make it very exciting to work.
