Good mission, terrible leadership - Anonymous employee Science Exchange Employee Review

Everyone's smart and driven, making it a cool place to work. The product we're working on is super innovative, always pushing the envelope. I love that we're not just here for a job; there's a strong mission that everyone believes in. It's not just work; it's a shared passion, and that makes all the difference.

While it's an awesome place, it's fair to mention that, like most startups, there's a hefty load of responsibility on each person. It's not a laid-back gig; you've got to be seriously invested in your career and motivated to improve every single day. The startup vibe means you wear many hats, which isn't everyone's cup of tea. It's not a 9-to-5 deal; it demands dedication. So, if you're into a bit of challenge and growth, it's cool, but it's not your typical easygoing workplace.

Salary was pretty good, and benefits were okay.

I was here for a little over a year. There were so many layoffs during my time here. After each series of layoffs, leadership would say "this won't happen again", yet it continued to happen. Leadership was toxic, and big projects kept getting pushed back. There was no room for growth. This company is going downhill fast.
