Pros
• Smart, mission-driven colleagues • Exposure to enterprise-level systems
Cons
•Filed an ethics complaint for repeated harassment and a toxic work environment; within two weeks, leadership threatened to remove core responsibilities • HR took no action—no investigation, no protection, no accountability • Employee Relations responded with gaslighting, urging me to “play the game” instead of addressing retaliation • After taking FMLA, my role was posted publicly during protected medical leave 1.5 months ahead of my return (despite me already having been out for 2 months), with no transparency or designation as temporary. I found out through the grapevine • A replacement was quietly onboarded while I was still on leave • Leadership attempted to reframe the posting as a “temporary contractor” role to cover my responsibilities—but nobody hires a contractor for a single month, and internal colleagues confirmed the person was hired as a full-time employee • It was obvious they were trying to cover it up, retroactively spinning the hire as temporary while onboarding someone permanently • When I proposed a mutual separation agreement, Labcorp refused and tried to reframe my exit as a voluntary resignation—despite the documented retaliation and procedural failures • Legal counsel was barred from separation discussions • Severance was denied under rigid policy framing, despite clear constructive discharge • Psychological safety deteriorated rapidly
