Pros

When your shift ends you can relax without worrying about taking your work home with you. It's honest work and when you get good at it, you'll find yourself able to look after others and build leadership skills. If you can manage to make a name for yourself here, you can make it anywhere. Lower/middle management is very friendly and makes an effort to help when they're not drowning in work themselves. 4 day shifts and 3 day weekends is really nice, but you'll probably spend 1 of them just recovering from the intensity of the work week.

Cons

Since I've started here, the workload has only ever increase for operators. Your workload will continue to increase, likely without any meaningful compensation or promotion to sustain your growth in the company. So long as you have the bandwidth you're going to be worked until the very end of the day. Upper management is extremely disconnected from the state of operations and does little to help/show no concern for the well being of their main work force. You're expected to work holidays unless you use your PTO to take them off. The result of all this is of course, a very poor and demeaning culture.

Pros

Partnership with JNJ warrants half of the business. And funding from Genscript means good cash flow.

Cons

Almost a one pony show with cilta.cel. The company has only treated a handful patients itself since the past five years. They try to distance themself from the common image of a Chinese company. But they are essential a Chinese company. There have been too much change in the clinical development. Employees face the shortage of resource and infrastructure from day one. Be prepared to end a meeting on Monday night 10 pm. Then dial in another meeting on 8am Tuesday. You might work under a higher title. But they expect you to deliver 200% of your pay and work 7 days a week. So think through the worst outcome before joining. The reality can be even worse than your imagination.
