Pros

Very few employees have given a review because the retention here is so high. Seriously the best company company culture I’ve seen. You get to work with great colleagues for a good cause. They are very generous with bonuses and stocks. No healthcare premiums. Good work-life balance. Beautiful office space and labs.

Cons

The cons are common to all biotech companies. You’re in a sector where there can be risk. Not all drugs will win approval.

Pros

Compensation and benefits are competitive.

Cons

My team experience was challenging due to limited managerial support and inconsistent availability, which impacted guidance and project clarity. Expectations and feedback were not always aligned, making it difficult to navigate priorities. Work allocation and opportunities at times felt uneven across team members, affecting overall team dynamics.
