Pros

I’ve had more ownership here than anywhere else. The problems are real, the work matters, and you can see the impact quickly. Teams are sharp and practical, and cross-functional work is the default, not a buzzword. Leadership is accessible, and if you bring a plan you’ll usually get support to run with it. It’s a good place for engineers who want to build, not just talk.

Cons

The pace is intense at times and the company is still scaling, so priorities can move and some processes are still getting tightened up. You need to be comfortable operating with ambiguity and staying organized when things change fast.

Pros

For first time employment it’s a good start. The work experience can take you a long way professionally. This company also won’t fire employees outside of normal layoffs phases or serious violations of company policies (illegal actions).

Cons

TLDR: toxic environment/classism/racism/deceptive benefits This place is a good place to learn but not grow. Once you’ve learned what others deem as enough your position responsibilities will grow to compensate managers and scientists failing to meet expectations. Management expects direct reports to not challenge wrongful practices and discourages employee empowerment (or basic rights). There were also some racism issues making professional development challenging for POCs. A lot of employees don’t say anything because of retaliation and the state of the economy allow these issues to run unchecked. Benefits are bare bones and leave medical providers speechless. There are a couple kind benefits but management and HR take issue to researching and asking about benefits. Expectations also include working long after working hours, lowest level employees being held responsible for management failures, working through injury, working through any time off not PTO, working while sick, having to take inperson meetings with sick managers, flexible working schedules being used against employees, and finally the biggest expectation is to be friendly with management and report wrongdoings of other employees be it wasting time or questioning management practices.
