Pros
I like the people at Cepheid. As a bunch they tend to want to do the right thing, are hard working, and play well with others. The company's future is also strong.
Cons
Many VPs at Cepheid just don't know how to manage including not understanding how to empower, enable development opportunities, etc. Several were promoted from within only because of tenure or charm vs. actual skills. Many of them still micro manage which doesn't inspire or help people do their best work. Very top down decision driven. HR and HRBP are not trying hard to help management grow.
