Pros
- Focus on employee experience is placed high in priority by all levels of management. - Where significant problems are identified, leadership responds quickly to correct with realistic solutions - The mission tag line "Make biology easier to engineer" is taken to heart by those on the ground. People who work here strive to make this mission reality - Compensation is competitive - High throughput automated bench scale science is not just a lofty ambition here, it is reality
Cons
- Rapid growth leads to new bottlenecks in the system. While bottlenecks are addressed as quickly as possible, those individuals in the bottleneck can experience strain while new solutions are found - Leadership acutely focuses on a mission of improving diversity and inclusion but struggles with the implementation. It is hard to attract diverse talent despite those efforts
