Pros

-You'll meet and learn from a lot of hardworking individual contributors that go above and beyond their roles -High impact competitive space to be in

Cons

-Frequent reorg events across multiple departments -In the last 1-2 years, influx of new junior-level managers from big companies like Thermo Fisher, Illumina, Roche, has led to weak middle management that isn't used to the pace and level of caliber needed for Guardant -Middle management's lack of alignment with upper management has led to poor communication, poor execution, and as a result, burnt out and frustrated ICs -Consistently feeling like timelines are always missed and never on track
