Monitoring Foreman (Current Employee), Tooele, UT –
Pros: the 7 days off in a row

I Delegate work tasks, I help with special projects to meet our customer needs.

The hardest part of my job is keeping up with all the proceedures and guidelines, and rewriting them. I get a great deal of satisfaction when – more...  my co-workers and I accomplish a hard days work. – less

Battelle is a Top Notch Company
Medical Emergency Response Manager (Former Employee), Omaha NE, Kaiserslautern Germany –
Pros: working for the af was spectacular.
Cons: contract jobs are subject to the highest bidder.
Great manager, Glenn Pollick. Loved the job. Emergency Management is the dream job, and the Air Force was a perfect contract to service.
Battelle is a Top Notch Company, and I'd work for them again in a heartbeat.

Management
Admin (Former Employee), Columbus –
Pros: they have an onsite gym
Cons: disregard work place bullying, harassment, violence and unfair treatment of employees.
There isn't any job security at this company, they RIF over 200 personnel in a matter of a few months. I gave up an excellent paying job with wonderful benefits and a tranquil work place to come to this company. Advancement won’t happen unless you get in good with the boss and the Vice President of you area, no matter how hard you work. Absolutely no – more...  availability for advance training, the same people always get chosen to attend all off site training. While employed there I put up with work place harassment, bullying, violence, and was treated unfairly. I had things thrown at me and fist in my face because I told the truth. Management has much to be desired as you can't put any trust into you immediate supervisor or fellow co-workers as they will gratefully stab you in the back. You are prohibited from using your chain to resolve issues when they can't be resolved at a much lower level. If you move beyond your immediate supervisor then you have to deal with the reprisal. This company is family oriented as they seem to have several members of the same family employed within the same location, this makes it difficult to elevate issues since it seems family members are over other family members. If you aren't part of the 'in' crowd you will never do enough work nor will it be good enough when completed. They condone work place harassment, bullying, violence and unfair treatment of employees. – less

Great pay and benefits
Hg Monitoring and CEMS Instrument Tech 3 (Former Employee), Stockton, Utah –
Pros: pay, benefits
Cons: management, schedule, pressure
Battelle is a great company. Battelle is set up to benefit it's employee's in so many way's. I worked for a branch of Battelle a long way away from the corporate office. If corporate Battelle really knew what went on at the site I worked at they wouldn't stand for it. The management is a bunch of crooked, watch each others back bad bad people. I watched – more...  so many people, good people, get set up to loose their job. Some were older, some were a little different and some just tried to stand up for themselves. I advanced very fast, I made unbelievable money and my benefits were great. They did not care about our families or that we might need to be there for them. It was a very miserable place to work. They pay, schedule and benefits were one side of the double edged sword that came with working at the site they manage in Tooele, Utah and the Tooele Army Depot Chemical Demilitarization Facility. My suggestion is $100,000.00 a year isn't worth what you will go through. Corporate Battelle offers so many chances to improve yourself and the management at that site refuse to let you take advantage of it. If you could work for Battelle somewhere else I would suggest it in a heart beat it really is a great company if you work somewhere that corporate pays attention to. – less
