Pros
CLIA/PE/RD teams are comprised of extremely driven and smart employees that take initiative on improvements to lab operations and workflow. CLIA management is strong, empathetic, and listens to their employees.
Cons
The People Team has ruined BillionToOne since joining in 2021. When a team that is so far removed from lab operations oversees and dictates how the lab operates, the entire Clinical team suffers. Merit increases, promotions, wages, worked holidays, culture - the People Team unfortunately plays a negative role in all of these. CLIA team is forced to work ALL holidays. Every single one. Only certain holidays actually get holiday pay. There are no bonuses, and no guaranteed yearly merit increase to combat inflation. There is no weekend differential, though the People Team consistently denies and states it is "baked" into our rate. On many occasions, several female employees have felt uncomfortable and have had their emails and messages ignored by a particular member of the People Team. This team is also responsible for poorly rolling out a new time management system, much to the dismay of their hourly employees. Though I have worked at BillionToOne for several years now, I cannot recommend this company as long as the People Team has a chokehold on the Clinical team.
