Pros

People are nice, fostering a sense of camaraderie among peers. HR also helps a lot.

Cons

The company experiences high turnover rate, indicating a significant issue with employee retention. Within some teams, there is a culture of bullying and extreme micromanagement, creating a hostile and stressful work environment. The management team is ineffective and unresponsive, often failing to listen to or address the concerns of employees. There are virtually no many opportunities for promotion, leaving employees with little motivation for career growth within the company. Moreover, the salaries offered are much lower than the industry standard, Additionally, I have personally experienced racial discrimination from my manager. These factors combined contribute to a negative overall work atmosphere and a challenging experience.

Pros

At one time it was an amazing place to work. Great Senior Leadership, sense of where the company was going. Amazing Science bright smart competent scientists. Proud to have supported.

Cons

Past few years toxic, unhealthy environment. Poor senior leadership, leaders who don't care about employees. Morale is non existent. Expectations are high but people are set up to fail. Very unsafe environment. Sad for the people left in the mess.
