Unethical and illegal treatment of employees - Anonymous employee Adaptive Biotechnologies Employee Review

Pros

Wonderful and talented colleagues who are dedicated to the company’s mission.

Cons

Adaptive has been quietly and systematically laying off employees over the past year on almost a monthly. They are doing it in small batches of just under 50 employees to try to avoid triggering a WARN notice, which would require them to make this information public (affecting their stock price), as well as provide additional relief to impacted employees. This is not only unethical, it is illegal and the minute amount of severance they are providing to impacted employees is insulting. Don’t believe me? Just go on LinkedIn to search for prior Adaptive employees and look at their end dates.

Pros

Fast paced, innovative, collaborative and flexible

Cons

In transitional years - very much a company that is a maturing start up and running into those predictable barriers that come with that growth.

Pros

Good pay, generous benefits, additional employee welfare options

Cons

The whole department was removed due to company going under. This was within 4 months of employment. I was able to get another job soon but wished they never hired if they were going to cut the workforce by 40%. After that, the company had multiple rounds of layoffs. Very unstable company.
