Avantages

- There are a lot of good people to work with - The company does try create a good work environment - It is a good job to start out at and get experience from

Inconvénients

-It is very unclear how the company determines giving raises to employees -Working hard does not mean you will get a good raise or move up in any way, you may just stay at the same position doing the same thing for multiple years. - After receiving experience, you are not paid for the experience you have with the company and if you need to be paid more good luck asking for a raise, many people have left the company as that was their only option to get paid for their experience. - This company has had 4 lay offs. The most recent lay off was nearly 50% percent of the company and can be attributed to their inability to solve a problem. They could of solved it by getting rid of a sales guy who constantly failed to meet his goals, and in turn caused the company to have to lay off nearly half their work force due to the companies inability to make profits. -The company does not hold themselves accountable to their own values.

Heliae has primarily been a research and development company since its inception in 2008. August 2018 will be mark Heliae’s tenth anniversary. There are many reasons for celebration. We have: - Hundreds of successful field trials of our newly commercialized microalgae-based soil amendment product; - A pipeline of additional microalgae-based products in development; - A successful partnership in Japan producing Astaxanthin today. While many worldwide companies have attempted to develop sustainable products from microalgae, they have not been able to survive, thus reducing the dozens of companies formerly in this industry, down to a just a handful, of which Heliae remains prominent. Heliae has indeed experienced many changes over the past decade. These changes have been extremely critical to continue the science of identifying the benefits of microalgae, developing new strains and now actually taking our products to market. As an emerging company Heliae has adapted to maintain its ability to manufacture products and continue research and development. While these changes have had impacts to some of our former associates, we still value and honor the commitments and contributions they have made. And, we are grateful for their participation in shaping Heliae as it is today. Current Associate: Director Human Resources in Gilbert, AZ

Avantages

- Heliae is a great place for professional development. If you need to gain experience in your field but hard to break through "minimum job requirements", Heliae has been willing to take that chance. - PhycoTerra branded products. These are a great solution to help the soil and impacts from traditional agricultural practices. - The people. Heliae has some of the most talented individuals I have ever worked with. - Great benefits - from insurance to bonuses. Bonuses are provided to all levels of the organization (salaried or hourly).

Inconvénients

- Not so much a con regarding Heliae but anyone who works there needs to understand it is small company. You have to be willing to wear many hats. You have to accept that you will not have the luxuries of a larger company.
