Pros

Flexible hours for appointments, second jobs, ect. Overtime is always possible Flexible lunch hour, you can take 15 minutes or an hour, it doesn't matter as long as it isn't a really busy day and the coworkers are okay with covering

Cons

Clique atmosphere like a high school, unorganized, you don't know what the following day will be like until that day starts, extreme favoritism in some areas, things get thrown on your plate of what needs to be done and somehow you have to get it done no matter how busy it is, you never know when you will get out of work. Lots of machinery going so it gets very hot in there and smelly due to bacteria that is being grown

Pros

The company is growing very fast. There is a lot of opportunity for advancement but you have to be vocal about what you would like to do. The organization structure is not traditional. It will be a good fit for some and not for others. I was able to work with top scientists around the country on new therapies. Good financial bonuses and other perks.

Cons

The real Aldevron organizational chart is quite flat and not a good fit for everyone. To get things done you sometimes have to go right to the top otherwise decisions are slow. While base salaries are good for Fargo they are low when compared to the entire biotech industry.
