Pros
Really smart and motivated people--I have learned a lot from them. This is a company that questions norms, and doesn't do things just because "that is how everyone else does them," which I find refreshing. Ginkgo is pretty flat and offers a lot of opportunities for initiative. I feel like being here has accelerated my career, both in what I have learned and the network I have built.
Cons
The company is in a rapid growth phase, and so some aspects of the company have not kept up with the growth. You need to be a self-starter to really succeed here. The business model is ambitious, which is a pro and a con.
