Pros

It was a pleasure and honor to work at Xencor. My manager and department mates are extremely smart and great collaborators and subject matter experts the best in the business. C-suite folks absolutely fabulous, Bassil, John, and Allen are super invested and responsive which was essential for moving programs forward.

Cons

I was mostly remote due to my inability to move, so it was tough to manage certain stakeholders. I decided to transition to a company local to my home so I could have in person interactions, but leaving Xencor was emotionally very tough because I developed really close relationships.

Pros

I joined Xencor because I felt like my research skills and interest in antibodies were really well aligned.

Cons

Unfortunately, as promising as the science is, the political climate here is devastating and gets in the way of doing good work. Leadership does nothing about the internal one up-manship and fighting. Also, it's a major hotbed for gossip and that happens in departments that should very much know better.
