Pros
- Supportive and talented colleagues at the lower levels who make day-to-day collaboration enjoyable and productive. - Global exposure, with the chance to collaborate with teams across multiple countries and cultures. - Exciting and fast-paced industry that keeps the work interesting and dynamic. - Comprehensive benefits package that supports both personal and professional well-being. - Pay is competitive with the industry average, providing stability without being exceptional.
Cons
- Senior leadership is largely disconnected from day-to-day operations and often appears out of touch with frontline realities. - Recent cost-cutting initiatives under the new CEO have reduced resources and support, with little understanding of the broader impact on teams. - Company culture increasingly prioritizes performance over integrity, which can undermine morale and trust. - High performers are rewarded regardless of behavior, leading to a culture where toxic or disrespectful attitudes can go unchecked. (Particularly if you are a legacy employee in Genewiz) - There was a lot of potential for the company, and they had a chance to stop the bleeding of talent and stock price with the new CEO and CFO. Instead, they selected someone with no public company experience and who is treating the company like a PE that you want to trim and then sell off.
