Ever improving company - worked there for 7 years now

Pros

*Fast growing company (>20% annual sales increase in the past consecutive 7 years) *The management team push themselves harder than they push employees. They take employees' suggestions into consideration and had made great improvements since my joining 7 years ago (e.g., salary, bonus, insurance, suitable personal development opportunities for proactive hardworking talented employees). *The company provides fresh biology graduates opportunities to enter into industrial field. *A good place for experienced biology postdocs who need a stable job to support the family, and still make good use of their scientific assets in the work. *Nice, warm, helpful co-workers

Cons

Communication between management and employee could be further improved.

good place for first job

Pros

1. Still a fast growing company with many opportunities for career advancement and/or lateral transfer between teams. 2. Very friendly and helpful co-workers (what I miss the most about working there). 3. Commercial team recruits people with no prior work experience. 4. Encourages employees to learn. For someone with an advanced degree in biology and good business sense but lacks work experience, this is a good place to start career in the biotech business world.

Cons

1. Poor benefits (eg. only offers 10 vacation days and 3 sick days a year) 2. Management style is still very "Chinese". I've also heard some bad stories about the company in its early days, but it appears to have improved significantly over these years. The company has just gone public which I hope will help the trend to continue.
