Natera reviews

It's hard to describe the feeling you get each and every day knowing you made a bad career move. This is the most poorly managed organization I've been a part of in my 16 year career, and that includes one company which went bankrupt. The company lacks vision alignment and management from the top down is constantly struggling with the unintended consequences of their own actions. Pero like every day we're changing direction. An idea touted as brilliant by one is then shot down and cancelled by another the next day. With how intentionally siloed the departments are, it's no wonder why there is a constant power struggle. I'm not the only one surprised by how the board has allowed the same core executive team to function for this long.

the lab operations management is a joke. The managers and director who have been working in this company for a couple years, have limited leadership capability to support the bottom line towards the next phase of product growth. Heard whines that important decisions were made by sales/marketing (or even R&D), however, literally these folks are incompetent to be critical decision makers, nor to establish a good working relationship with the other leaders effectively to work out win-win scenarios, so that lab staff won’t be the victims for those decisions. they do not appear or actively engage to the routine cross-functional project meetings. They send their lower rank staff to work with the other teams, yet they spend their work hours either from home, or excused themselves from meetings due to long commute, etc. Favoritism plays a huge part in here, as these folks, despite these behaviors, still able to get their pay raised and/or promotion, rather than being put into performance improvement plan. often times, the resolutions of their issues are to get new hires to fix instead of looking to fix issues themselves - another example of incompetency despite they are in senior management levels and pretty well compensated
