Great Mission, Bad Culture - Director Guardant Health Employee Review

—Immature leadership —Culture is transactional, disrespectful, condescending, impatient —There are no consequences for mistreating employees —Lack of empowerment —No work-life balance; the expectation seems to be that Guardant will be your life. The co-founder/co-CEO named here on Glassdoor has on several occasions said, "Cancer doesn't sleep, so neither can we." It's not uncommon for employees to work 12-16-hour days with little or no "thank you." —Many managers treat employees like commodities — in fact, I heard one SVP refer to his team members as "commodities" — than human beings. —Co-founder/co-CEO named here on Glassdoor represents many of Guardant's worst attributes: transactional, disrespectful, condescending, impatient. —It appears the only way to get any appreciation is to agree to all of your manager's requests — no matter if it's within scope — and to work all the time (nights, weekends, etc.) —I look around and see a lot of good people leaving; you can only take so much before your mental health starts suffering.
