Pros

Good benefits package: highlights include 401k matching (which they took away during COVID) Smart coworkers, really talented people Lots of flexibility with hours and working from home

Cons

Leadership’s approach to everything is “build the plane while you’re flying it” – direction is constantly changing, lot of restructuring, nobody knows what’s going on Transparency is nonexistent, zilch, on EVERYTHING: day to day job operations, company direction, professional growth - everything is wrapped up in these archaic processes and you’ll just feel gaslighted afterwards Lack of diversity and diversity commitments is all talk - unsupportive environment for minorities and people of color – not a good place to grow so there’s really high turnover

Pros

- Great health benefits and salary - A few great colleagues - Talk a lot about inclusion but this has slowly been falling to the wayside - I have been struggling the write this for some time as I wish there were more positive things to say

Cons

- Leadership that does not see anyone or anything but themselves - The company has been imploding for a while lying to the public and the street - Killing off the research model has been the final decision that has made many decide to look elsewhere (including me) - Lay off after lay off has created a culture of fear
