Ambry Genetics – I love working at Ambry. However I believe that the leadership specifically within the lab needs improvement, because all promotions look to be based off favoritism and not work ethic. There are leaders who don't do any work, and get praised/rewarded for it. Hopefully some real change can happen. | Comparably

Briefly describe your overall experience at your company

I used to love working in the lab, when the company was more team oriented. Changing the schedule created a toxic work environment between the lab techs and their managers. There are a lot of higher positions in the company, but maybe we would benefit more from focusing on creating a strongerbase

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

The kind people are a pleasure.

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

The people I work with make coming into work rewarding.

What makes you most happy at work?

Being independent and knowing I provide great results for the company.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Focusing more on employee needs, instead of burning us all out.

What are some of the best things about your team?

The people I work with are very friendly and hardworking. And pleasant to work with.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

I don't get the recognition I deserve for the work I put in. While others do. To feel valued, fixing the pay across the company would be helpful.

What are some of the best things about your team?

The people that I work with on my level are all kind and hardworking. It is always a pleasure to be on a team. The leadership (managers) are the biggest issue at this company

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

They leadership team does a bad job at showing that they care about their employees. They constantly praise and promote higher ups but claim that they dont have enough resources to help the hard workers at the bottom.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

I am constantly asked to work unpaid Overtime hours in my new role. Where I received a raise that was below 3% this year due to switching teams. Taking this new role made it so I now make less money with more work.

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

My manager burns us out as much as possible. She is extremely inept at her job as a leader. She expects us to work 10-12 hours daily due to company needs. There is no work life balance. Maybe if the higher ups were more aware of how their managers manage, things can improve. no accountability
