Pros

- The people you work with excluding the management are the only reason to work for this company. - Employee's are the backbone to this company.

Cons

- Paid Monthly (sometimes not on time or given excuses as to why an employee isn't paid on time.) - Doesn't really supply computers to work on - expects you to bring your own if you have it. - Management too cheap to pay for supplies for the office/ or pay a cleaning person to clean it/ or pay for a garbage bin. - Unclear expectations, Un-prioritized work - you never end up working on the same thing for long, continuously switches. - Pretends to give incentives to get employee's to work faster but refuses to pay up when apparent incentive goal expires. - No room to grow/ No positive feedback/ No feedback given in general. - Relies on grants. - Employee morale is usually low, as management drags its own company down. - There is no HR, no real management, company calls itself a start up but has been around for 7 years. - Management tries to convince employee's there applying for a specific position to end up doing the same as everyone else in the office. - Management favours certain employee's allowing them to permanently work from home- but expects everyone else who works for him to always be in the office basically a double standard. - High turn over rate - no real employment opportunity as people are constantly leaving (5 people left within my first 6 months, due to management unprofessionalism/ incompetence.

Good effort, but long way to go

Pros

It was a great place to learn if you're into learning on the go. It's also a good entry company into health tech.

Cons

There was little in terms of strategic direction. While management was very nice, it was unclear where we were going. It didn't seem transparent and the constant stream of advisors and mentors didn't really help. It also felt odd that the majority of the workforce were internship students with no learning plan or mentorship in place. There was also little in terms of helping employees and interns grow. And internal people operations were lacking. Hopefully it's better now.

This DESTROYED team morale -Unpaid vacation, little to no perks you expect from a startup, including team nights -Ppl often paid for basic office supplies, such as hand soap or toilet paper or kitchen supplies, out of pocket and were not reimbursed
