Pros

I believe Assurex Health and GeneSight, its product, will be household names in the future. Working for this company not only allows you ground floor experience in a rapidly growing field, but also gives you the opportunity to work for a cause you can truly get behind. I have had jobs where my effort creates a "thing" that does not add value to the world. Each day's work that I put in here goes towards helping mental health patients. Assurex Health has a great culture. It has experienced exponential growth and managed to select the right candidates to keep the best of the best employed. I trust the leaders in the organization are taking us in the right direction. I trust that this company will be extremely successful. I have experienced this company value me through pay raises, promotions, stock options, and recognition within my group. They offer great health insurance, a free community center membership, and value their employees each day by offering free drinks, company sponsored bi-monthly luncheons, and company picnics and parties. With each event, the leadership team shares the company's progress, struggles, and vision. I cannot say enough good things about this company.

Cons

My only complaint is that current employees hold a spot here that do not see the promise of this company and how it values them.

Pros

Good location Free membership to the Community Center Myriad's (parent company) benefits are good Product actually helps improve peoples' lives

Cons

Constant confusion and disagreement among leadership Complete lack of vision for the product software No funding for tools, training, and people needed for the demands/requirements given Frequent development emergencies due to speed being valued over quality Promises made, but never fulfilled. Actions never match words. The appeal of working for Assurex Health included working with awesome technology that truly helps people, a large potential for career growth, and a significant monetary reward from an IPO or acquirement. However, what transpired instead was career stagnation (for many) due to poor compensation and lack of training/tools needed for career growth. Likewise, the college tuition, mortgage payoff, and early retirement that was touted by the CEO as things we could do with our stock options turned out to be a couple thousand dollars for employees that were here for 5+ years, while the CEO received millions. People changed their lives by buying/building houses to move closer to this company and accepted well below-market-value salaries because of the promises made by leadership regarding our stock options value. The company lists "People First" as a core value and preaches to always put the patient first, but nearly every decision made and action taken contradicts this value. Processes that improve the quality and experience for our customers are cut in order to get a product out faster that people find frustrating or unusable. Developers are asked to build things as fast as possible, regardless of what processes are in place, before requirements are even decided upon. The reduction in product development staff further sends the message that high quality and enjoyable experiences with our product doesn't matter, and people/patients are not as important as sales and dollars. Why would anyone want to stay?
