Pros
The organization is filled with intelligent, mission-driven people and cool science. When things are going well, it can be an inspiring place to work with a collaborative culture.
Cons
2025 took a sharp downturn — significant layoffs, disengaged or absent leadership, and an HR function that lacks sophistication. Compassion for staff has faded and the environment has become increasingly demoralizing. Progress on diversity, equity, and inclusion seems to have been rolled back.
