Great learning opportunities overshadowed by toxic culture

CEO approval

Business outlook

Pros

- You learn a lot that will be beneficial for your career - The technology is very interesting and will give you a good introduction into the biotech industry

Cons

- Company is very toxic and can become unbearable to work for - You’ll be get blamed easily and not much praise - Management takes no accountability at all and puts it on you - You’ll have to travel on a quick notice, and they don’t have a company card. So a lot you have to pay out of pocket for and will take a while before you get your money reimbursed
