Pluspunten

Good experience in a lab setting. In my case I was given almost complete freedom to plan, design, carry out and interpret the data of my own experiments. Friendly people.

Minpunten

No vacation time, poor benefits (no 401k matching), poor pay - $19/hour for someone worth twice that. They try to poach young scientists with limited industry experience (despite extensive research experience) into working for less than they are worth - calling and paying them 'lab assistance' but giving them the work load and responsibility of full scientists

Pluspunten

A good amount of remote monitoring, which depending on how you view can be a positive.

Minpunten

Changing systems and inconsistent standards are applied to people. There are many differing models that often muddy how you are supposed to do your job, especially when other staff members don't quite understand. How do you interface with the changing models? There tends to be a lot of blame and foisting of responsibilities. Sometimes you can become overburdened with a lot of work, where people do not respect your time and think that their tasks should take priority. It is possible to be contacted late at night with work to do and then be criticized the next day for not being able to keep up.
