      Pros

      Really interesting science and wonderful people. I can not stress how great the people are enough. The company message is really inspiring and in real life results are well communicated to employees which is very empowering.

      Cons

      Moves very fast, which isn't a con for everyone, but it often translated to putting out many many fires rather than focusing on important infrastructure problems and leaving no time to focus on long term goals. Poor work-life balance. Many people are over worked and there was a high turnover while I was there. I really hope a lot of this will change as the company adjusts to growth.

      Thank you so much for providing feedback. I apologize for my delay in response but we read all of these comments. I agree that training managers needs to be a priority and it is something we are now putting a big effort against. I'm sorry you were not here to reap the benefits of that. I agree that we have really terrific people and they are a great asset to us! Thank you again for taking the time to write feedback - we really appreciate it.

      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.
