Pros

Snacks and great equipment. The people in the lab are awesome.

Cons

Absolutely horrendous management. Couldn't even figure out how do layoffs properly. Zero career growth, extreme favoritism. The business team is useless and has no understanding of the science being performed. The science is interesting but the expectations and timelines are unrealistic
