I was an accessioner. The job mostly consists of scanning the orders into the system, making sure the IDs match and you input the correct basic information like client and tests, and specimen preperation (weighing). Its easy work and you can accept or reject additional responsibilities they may give you. The specimens may be a bit off for sampling or you may have to consult an older employee regarding any complications. It's actually really nice to be Ble to ask questions and help freely. The bad part is some things like the test codes change and not even the older workers are informed. The pay is nad, minimum even if you accept additional duties. Good work place that lets you  miss out for whatever reason ,,(just inform prior to your shift so they know)

I have never experienced a more disorganized and hostile working environment. The supervisors are some of most unpleasant people and should not be given positions of leadership. Not to mention that the training I was given was chaotic and I was pawned off to a handful of different people because no one wanted to train new comers which made it incredibly difficult to learn the correct way of doing things since I was being told numerous different directions. The coworkers are very unfriendly and love to gossip; there were only a few that I enjoyed. If you want a job with an incredibly angry and rude boss in a mind numbing environment where you are constantly nit picked on every move you make then this is the job for you! 

What is the best part of working at the company?
Good health care plan and working remote.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Management and leadership is really poor giving way to a very high attrition rate. Key employees are not valued and appreciated. No annual reviews, no performance-based increases or cost of living increases to speak of.  Employee morale on a steady decline. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Working remote is good, but company culture is exploitive. There are no performance reviews ever, no raises, bonuses or retention policies for key employees.

The most enjoyable part of the day is working with familiar faces and knowing the security in the position  I hold. I can not say there was anything too hard for me to handle as I am  quick to adapt and make things work.The most enjoyable part of my day would be handling inbound calls and routing people to the appropriate channels ensuring everyone is happy while still being productive.I have enjoyed my time here however it is time for me to broaden my horizons and see what awaits my future. :)

Easy going company for sales as good training and assistance from management.

No heavy push on quota attainment.  Management is helpful, keeps us informed.

Little incentive for advancement as very few levels in company; Sr. Mgt - manager - worker.   

No incentives or awards program for hitting or exceeding sales quota.  

Company very tight on marketing budget for leads.  Won't let us share sales materials or presentations with prospects and clients as concerned competition will find out what we do when they already know.

For the 8 years that I worked at this company I really enjoyed the VP and the group I worked with. After the VP left and a new one was hired the family feel to our group was no longer there and the moral began to fall apart. Now many of the employees have left and others are there trying to hold on. Horrible new VP, has no people skills or the ability to treat employees like humans.

The employees at this job really make it an amazing atmosphere to work in. I was comfortable asking anyone questions when unsure about something. The responses were always with an eagerness to help. My only concern was the lack communication going on between departments that worked together. This often made it difficult for employees to know their progress and how to correct mistakes immediately.

I enjoyed working here, fast-paced and always learning new things here from data-entry, to hair sample processing measurements. There was schedule flexibility and work flexibility, if you are not comfortable with something, you can change to doing something you are comfortable with.  everyone there is ready to help with any questions, and you all work as a team, with one finishing goal, and various positions.

While the pay is alright for students or those who are looking for something stable, but anything more you will be wasting your time. Management is pretty rude, unempathetic to the amount of work that is done by the employees daily. Constant pushing on the team to get a set amount of samples done by a specific time, even when understaffed. Favoritsm, and lopsided recognition.

it is clean, organize lab. co-workers are very friendly. management is under a lot of pressure in order to make sure everything moves smoothly and they have to do a lot of training.
the downside of the job is it is repetitive and becomes boring. 
overall it is an easy job after you are trained.
