Allen Institute reviews

C level lives in a vacuum and a management is required to focus primarily on managing upward at the detriment of collaboration.

-Management is more focused on office politics and trying to cover up their mistakes or inept ability to lead, than actually advancing science -Had managers who tracked their employees every move including bathroom/coffee breaks, felt more like a prison than a workplace -Office politics are over the top and the amount of drama makes working here truly not worth it -A lot of the upper management has been working at the Allen for 10+ years and some of them are there just to collect a check and push their work onto their subordinates -The expectation is that RA's only work there for 2-3 years then they are expected to leave -Bullying is rampant amongst management, they regularly pit their employees against each other to the point where people have to quit or call in sick -Management regularly pushes RA's to work more than their 40 hours and to skip lunches/breaks to do more work -A lot of teams have a sink or swim mentality when it comes to training, either you get it first time or your marked with a scarlet letter -Managers will openly lie and gaslight employees in order to get what they want, after what I experienced I had to go to therapy
