Pros

Stable employer, good benefits, and decent COVID19 response

Cons

The Nanopore project in Santa Clara is a highly toxic environment that has led to a lot of infighting and blaming of one another. You are punished if you do not accept the current dogma and any new scientific results that contradict will be repressed. There is no accountability of the projects leading to incentive for most employees to do above the bare minimum to keep their jobs.

Pros

The benefits are good so far just like any other company

Cons

Terrible managers Employees are getting away with traveling without using PTO when they are on EDO because they are friends with managers. This raises concerns regarding fairness, policy compliance, and equitable treatment of employees. If the manager dont like you, Your life will be hell and they will find the stupidest mistakes to kick you out. Again, some people get away of not using their pto and they will travel and claim they are working while manager is okay with it. Bunch of hypocrites
