Pluspunten

Great technology. Chemistry division is progressive and diverse, the people are more friendly and professional than the Engineering group.

Minpunten

Some people were fired prior to the acquisition by bioMerieux. This was probably done to sweeten the buyout deal, but they were instead accused of not meeting a vague "performance standard." Those who worked on the Film Array product (the only product the acquiring company was interested in) had an easier time meeting the standard. A few of the managers were attempting to hire only people that passed the local "religion test." I came across evidence of this but it is difficult to prove. I do NOT believe this was a company-wide policy, and it's my guess that those with this discriminatory attitude probably moved over to the "Biofire Defense" offshoot company rather than staying with "Biofire Diagnostics".

Pluspunten

Good work week hours. You get every other Friday off. Plenty of vacation time. Very good 401k. Decent medical benefits. Coworkers are the best to work with. Excellent talent and ingenuity. The developers are top notch, project managers are awesome to work with to a degree.

Minpunten

If you are a test engineer, you will have every project manager, associate director, director and senior director know better than you how to test software. They conform to the factory based test method. They wont let you deviate so don't try. Even with their extremely educated management, they seem to know little to nothing about Tacit and Explicit knowledge or ignore it outright because it doesn't fit into their outdated method. But aren't above informing you how a test case is to be written so that anyone can run it. (A terrible model that makes lazy testers, expensive test case documents, and crappy software)
