What’s it like working at Science and Engineering Institutes?

AI summary of recent reviews

Employees at Science and Engineering Institutes value the flexible working hours and access to good resources such as machines, reagents and technologies to support their projects. The organisation is seen as a stable place to work where employees can potentially retire.

However, some potential challenges exist, including high workload expectations to deliver daily research results, an unpleasant work environment with high staff turnover and complaints about the employer, frequent changes to policies and structures by management, and a perception that good performance is not rewarded sufficiently.

My employer and work environment

The good thingsThe mashines and reagents in this lab are better than my previous lab. Some technologies are also new and very useful. So these conditions are good for me to proceed my projects and I can learn much from here.

The challengesThe employer wants research results from you every day and don't quite understand your difficult in work. All the colleagues in the lab are complained at employer and work. Staff also changes frequently (the old leave and the new get in)．So the work environment is bad and it's hard for you to work pleasantly in this place.

Appalling management limits career growth

The good thingsRelatively low stress environment as mediocrity is not being punished. Job stability means it is a good place to retire.

The challengesPerformance is not being rewarded sufficiently. The management is constantly changing policies and structure.
