Pros

Great group of Scientist, talent, friendly, supportive. Got a long with everyone

Cons

Human resources such as Amy and Jessica are gluesless, unprofessional, and lock of communication. HR has changed the culture at Fate to toxic. They don't know how to handle conflict, employee performing below expectation. Best practice I saw was ignore the issue and hope it will go away or not my problem! Upper Management is no better has taken what seems like a good company with the clinical trials for cure of some cancer to the ground. Lost a lot of great talent during the 60% reduction and others are leaving on their own. I feel leadership has lost their way and only plan on cashing out whatever stocks are left. They don't seem to care what Fate once was. Its all about the profits. Very sad!!!

Pros

Diverse group of exceptionally talented people working together towards a noble goal of improving iPSC cancer therapy, a very fun and rewarding job with great pay and benefits.

Cons

Extremely unstable position, some people can be laid off on short notice as the company restructures to save money for other projects. Management is disorganized and in need of better communication which may contribute to job instability and future prospects for the company.
