Pros

Once in a lifetime opportunity to not only disrupt an industry but to do it in an industry that is fundamentally critical to the survival of humanity. We're building something very special at the intersection of Biological Science, Technology and Agriculture. Small things: Free lunch Free parking Great benefits

Cons

It's an intense place with a lot of moving parts and a lot of ambiguity. We are iterating rapidly and moving fast because we need to. All of this is a result of the massive opportunity and the urgency to capitalize on the window we have. If you aren't comfortable with this type of an environment it might not be the place for you.

Pros

Decent base salaries. Due to the company's structure and goal shifting, you get experience in a lot of different aspects of the company. Past non-negotiable goal milestones, there is some flexibility, you have the opportunity and freedom to make the job your own. Good work-life balance, and commendable company goals around sustainable ag etc. made working here stand out.

Cons

Raises and bonuses not given for several years due to company not reaching unattainable goals. Lots of turnaround from constant layoffs. During my time there, I had a new manager about every year. No clear goals, and when they are clear they constantly shift. It is hard to grow salary wise within the company, especially when money is tight. You will be able to get more responsibilities and learn new skills, but don't expect your pay to reflect this. Lots of financial mismanagement within the company causing current R&D funding and operations to be barely present.
