Encouraging management. I always feel welcome and part of the team.

Specialist (Current Employee) - Richmond, BC - 10 June 2023

Work is challenging and fun, always something new to learn. The company culture is terrific for including you in everything. I have seen my own growth professionally and personally since I started. The company really follows through on making sure you have everything you need to keep growing and checks in often.

Pros

Great focus on learning and being a part of the goals and mission. Love the perks of the kitchen!

Cons

None I can think of

Terrible company with fast turnover, and low pay

Laboratory worker (Former Employee) - Richmond, BC - 27 May 2023

One of the worst job experiences ever. Very low salary, high staff turnover. Workplace safety (when I was there) was completely non-existent, and people were not properly trained on how to use the equipment.

Pros

Free parking

Cons

low pay, dubious safety

Worst company to work in . Literally no work life balance . Always overtime and no proper compensation .

Don’t want to disclose (Current Employee) - Richmond, BC - 27 January 2022

Run . Save yourself from the misery. You will be asked to always do overtimes and without proper compensation except for production team . They set un realistic targets and expect you to perform by killing your work life balance . They claim they care about the employees but internally no one really cares about it. Also you will be underpaid and won’t grow as in other companies.

Pros

Free lunch Free gym Social activities

Cons

Always over time Poor management Job dissatisfaction Frustration No work life balance

Productive teams to be a part of

Quality (Current Employee) - Richmond, BC - 13 June 2021

I have not worked at a place like this before where the teams are working together so much we can meet in the kitchens and meeting rooms to discuss what's working. People are super friendly and helpful to support. First few months felt like well planned for my learning plan started with the company the same time as 3 other people from different areas, we really belong to 'one' team and share our work experiences all the time. Company provides hot drinks coffee, tea, hot choc, in a huge modern kitchen. Company takes the COVID safety very seriously which is good for my family at home to know. I love it here.
