Pros

The company has an accountability culture. Those that are willing to lean in and work hard will do well. The company has a great system in place for managing cross functional projects, the best that I've worked within. Great collaboration between departments and teams. People treat each other with respect and they don't tolerate toxicity. Great company to grow and learn within. A lot of high-level achievers that are willing to share knowledge and contribute to growth. Fun group to work with. Very approachable CEO and Executive Leadership.

Cons

Do to growth through acquisitions, here have been some unfortunate layoffs. However, that comes with every divestiture and acquisition.

Pros

Fast paced / leadership vision / purpose. I like the acquisitions and the idea becoming the CDMO of choice in regenerative medicine. I also love the rebrand to EVERGEN. I have brought people / friends to the company and will continue to do so.

Cons

Some may have a hard time with the pace and amount of change but this is how it is in a fast growing company.

Pros

Individual contributor team is incredibly nice. Most people are fairly caring and collaborative at that level of the organization.

Cons

Leadership is just awful. Sr operations (VPs and up) are clueless about how to run manufacturing and are constantly finding themselves distracted and unable to drive many products to actual profitability. On the R&D side, going all the way up to the CSO, it’s incredibly toxic. Other places I worked had much more competent and behaviorally mature executive leadership. Employees are constantly being pushed out through dishonest narratives created by these leaders so they can avoid actually firing to pay severance. And if they don’t do that, they just lay people off. This company also has history with financial fraud and illegally brokering human tissues. Don’t know why I thought they could change.
