Promega Corporation

In Product Finishing, management treats workers poorly.  Degree snobs are par for the course (if you don't have a business, hard science, or IT degree, you are a lesser person) for getting ahead.   Management doesn't like to be held to their own standards, and will retaliate if you go over their heads to report a non-compliance matter one of the managers created.  
Other departments don't have this problem, just Dispensing and Kit Packaging.
Extremely informative and educational company meetings, several paid breakfasts throughout the year.  Once you get past lower and middle management in Product Finishing, you'll find fantastic people.  Co-workers are great overall.  Nice cafeteria with good food, range from gourmet dishes to plain and simple.

I started in 2010 and creativity and neurodiversity was rewarded. around 2018 the culture changed and if you're not "in the box" and do what "everyone else does" you are pushed out. So sad because I was SO happy there for a long time. Eventually left because management became emotionally abusive. They create a culture of "never good enough." What I was praised for and got awards for before 2018 was then "issues" on my performance reviews after 2018. Pay is not commensurate with experience.

They don't ask much of you but expect you to perform the tasks well and to be mindful of your work.  There isn't much to learn for the first few months, and it can get very monotonous but it's easy.  Supervisors are always helpful and able to work with your schedule.  Also, an inclusive workplace that hired people of many backgrounds.   

What is the best part of working at the company?
Promega is great from from a benefits and work/life balance aspect. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
However, the culture of Promega will vary within departments and whom your manager/supervisor may be. With an understanding that it is a "for-profit business" environment, anything not tied to a monetary gain are not seen as important, and thus not a priority (personal wellness to personal/professional growth and development).

This is a great place to work with an amazing work life balance. Unfortunately there is not compensation for the work done. Very poor bonuses doesn't seem to be dependent on the work done and more your bosses ability to write. 
A lot of freedom to try new things and learn new things in many roles. The management are too greedy and not willing to share profits with employees.
Great people work here.

Pretty much everyone at the company was friendly and genuine. Managers and supervisors were understanding, fair, and supportive. Company events were lots of fun. The work itself sometimes dragged a little but that was mostly on long processes. The pay felt a little low considering the degree requirements, but the area is beautiful and there's a college nearby so the supply of applicants is high.

Privately owned company that continues to grow annually.   Always striving for the most efficient organization of business.   Depending on area of company, some are very flexible which help with a work/life balance.    Culture is relaxed and casual - a work hard play hard setting.   Management turnover seems high.

Overall great company culture, leadership really tries to do the right thing for employees. As always, it just depends on the department you work in and who your manager is. Not a lot of room for growth, it's a pretty flat organization. Low attrition rates prior to COVID-19, but has increased since. Great benefits like onsite wellness center, cafeteria and workout facility in every building.

Ai is taking over while what use to be a great cutlure with a focus on employees is disappearing.  Direction changes frequently now under Ai and news is delivered differently depending on who you report to.  We are supposed to ask AI everything and not interact anymore.  ALL meetings are recorded violating privacy.  Some people are even taking large pay cuts.  Promega has lost its way.

Company definitely cares about its employees.  on site nurse was a wonderful perk!  fitness rooms in every building as well as cafeterias.  Most of the people were wonderful to work with.  There's always a few bad apples that spoil it for all.  I'd work for my boss again in a heartbeat.
