Pros

People and culture is great overall. Business is doing well. People are smart and hardworking. Free lunches, snacks, and frequent parties with food and drinks.

Cons

Most lower level jobs are poorly paid. Hiring only hardworking superstars but only a small fraction gets promotions and merit increases, no bonus no annual raises otherwise, so the base salary can becomes not competitive pretty quickly. Career growth between different departments are mismatched, some departments advance people to high levels much faster than others. CLIA and R&D have hardworking people stuck at some levels. Many people are waiting for the market to warm up to leave for other opportunities.

Poor Excuse for a People Team

Pros

CLIA/PE/RD teams are comprised of extremely driven and smart employees that take initiative on improvements to lab operations and workflow. CLIA management is strong, empathetic, and listens to their employees.

Cons

The People Team has ruined BillionToOne since joining in 2021. When a team that is so far removed from lab operations oversees and dictates how the lab operates, the entire Clinical team suffers. Merit increases, promotions, wages, worked holidays, culture - the People Team unfortunately plays a negative role in all of these. CLIA team is forced to work ALL holidays. Every single one. Only certain holidays actually get holiday pay. There are no bonuses, and no guaranteed yearly merit increase to combat inflation. There is no weekend differential, though the People Team consistently denies and states it is "baked" into our rate. On many occasions, several female employees have felt uncomfortable and have had their emails and messages ignored by a particular member of the People Team. This team is also responsible for poorly rolling out a new time management system, much to the dismay of their hourly employees. Though I have worked at BillionToOne for several years now, I cannot recommend this company as long as the People Team has a chokehold on the Clinical team.

Incredible Company

Pros

I’ve never worked for a company like BTO, not only is the technology amazing (only prenatal test that can test baby and mom without needing a paternal sample) but the company culture is extremely strong. Very transparent, great pay and benefits, and they only hire the best so everyone has a great attitude and wants to succeed. Also a start up so they want to hear from the team and things are constantly changing for the better! People are constantly promoted, so lots of opportunity to move up.

Cons

The only downside is having to sell against Natera, who is on an active campaign to take UNITY down. Combatting constant lies and misinformation, you definitely need to be thick-skinned and ready to fight!
