Pros

Nice facilities. Right off the freeway.

Cons

It's a predatory environment. Young women will be made to feel very uncomfortable by senior staff. Especially the c-level executives. The founders are megalomaniacs and lie to their employees about the company, it's trajectory and culture. Their financial practices are also very questionable. Do not take any financial advice from anyone in their finance department.They missed their chance at getting sold and are constantly reinventing themselves to appear more marketable. Women-DO NOT WORK HERE!

Pros

Benefits are great, Pay is great, food is a buffet style so always delicious.

Cons

Managers are micromanaging in all aspects. It's not about you, it's about metrics and so be prepared to work in anxiety. If you go and take a 15 minute break they'll be wondering why you took such a long break and not at your desk or in lab working. Environment is divided. A bunch of people tend to be cordial but as soon as you walk away they are talking bad about someone or about you. Very Cut-throat environment so just be prepared. High turn around position.
