Pros

Coworkers were good people Opportunity for networking in niche science fields Company swag Good mission Good number of holidays off

Cons

Unsupportive supervisor, nowhere to go for guidance Background in something other than science - few opportunities to pursue interests No opportunity for growth Little buy-in/financial support from leadership Cultural values preached, not practiced Dominant culture reminiscent of higher academia culture - not in a good way

Pros

Benefits, such as PTO and health, are fantastic.

Cons

A pro and a con are there are rarely set ways to do things. You can pave your own way, but others could be paving a way to the same destination and just creating more paths when it would be better to work together.

Thank you for your thoughtful review! We love that you feel the autonomy to pave your own way here, and recognize that also can present its own challenge with duplicating efforts.
