Pros

Smart Technology, food, drinks, small gym, and game room. Medical coverage. You will meet great people here but when they start falling into the little office cliques it becomes not a happy place to work at. Gluten Free snacks hahahaha

Cons

Micro Management, cliques, office gangs, and unappreciated by management with little pay. Team Moral SUCKS here, its very degrading having degrees and the company you work for does not acknowledge you for your hard work etc. I will be leaving this company within a month been here too LONG with nothing to show for.

Growing quickly, managed poorly

Pros

Overall the people were fun and I enjoyed working with them. Some groups are great, others are mostly dysfunctional. Its a work hard, play hard atmosphere.

Cons

No one has experience working in biotech. CEO is a bit of a tyrant and some of the managers who have little to no experience in management think that the CEO's way of doing things must be the right way (the CEO has had successful tech startups in the past). Before joining, I strongly suggest asking what the background is of your manager. If this is their first job ever and they have been placed at a high management level, run away.

Ridiculous. Worst job of my life.

Pros

Some very smart people, great products. Nice building but the office itself is an embarrassment because it's such a disaster. Pay is decent, but after the hours you put in, it recalculates to a very low wage.

Cons

Working here: expect to get ridiculed, underappreciated, insulted, overworked and overwhelmed. A number of folks are in places of power that have no business being there, and the few people that do know business and can actually grow this business don't have any power whatsoever because they clearly threaten the instability and ego of the top bananas. It's a shame that such a great product and company has been ruined by poor business acumen and massive dysfunctional egos. Also, lots of gossip and cliques here made it hard to ever feel welcomed by anyone.
