Pros

Collaborative atmosphere -- there is a sense of shared success, and when problems arise, the focus is on finding solutions as opposed to finding someone to blame. Impact on patients -- company is pioneer in liquid biopsy and has provided results to over 100,000 patients that help guide personalized targeted treatment. Scientific challenges -- there are many unsolved problems left to tackle. Also, there is so much data to work with -- it is a privilege and a duty to use to help tomorrow's patients. Onsite lunch is pretty good, and teams order delivery on Fridays

Cons

There's a lot going on, so buckle up for shifting priorities as new opportunities arise. Work-life balance: getting better, but still a fast moving start-up atmosphere.
