Pros

The benefits and work/life balance was always very good. The direct management was always very polite and cared about their employees. Working for an organization that further genomics and cancer research was very rewarding.

Cons

At times engineers can get too caught up with new technology instead of solving problems that need attention.

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.
