Pros

Karius uses innovative technology for a very worthwhile purpose, quickly diagnosing hospitalized patients to enable their treatment and discharge from the hospital; at times this saves lives. I've found that people who care about this mission tend to make wonderful co-workers. Karius employees tend to be both caring and very smart. Also, the company frequently demonstrates how much it values Karius employees by treating us well; this starts at the top with our CEO.

Cons

We're a small, growing company with all of the challenges that goes with that. People who want a big company environment would probably not be happy working here.
