Pros

The majority of employees are well-intentioned, hardworking and doing their best to navigate the challenging circumstances Amyris has left them in.

Cons

Company is imploding and can no longer meet obligations to employees or vendors. The fire sale has already started. Executive leadership cannot be trusted. On a personal note, I was recently laid off after previous assurances my role was safe. There was no warning and it happened via an impersonal email. This type of business conduct is unacceptable in this day and age.
