Pros
Helix is truly a great place to work. Everyone here believes that there is something uniquely special about what we are building. A few of the many reasons to work here include: - Doing something that matters. - Work with people who are passionate and willing to share their expertise. - No shortage of tough, challenging problems to work on. - The ability to take ownership of projects you care about. - Great colleagues who genuinely care about each other and enjoy spending time together. - Leadership truly values every employee and they regularly put their money where their mouth is to prove it. - Transparency is not just a value, it's built into the company and the way we operate. - Building the future! At some point, all people will get sequenced. If it's not Helix (although we're pretty sure it will be us), it will be someone else and it's exciting to be part of the team designing that future.
Cons
Helix probably shares cons with many small startups. For someone with the right fit, these cons probably won't seem too bad: - We work hard and people put in long hours, but pressure doesn't come from above it's generally self motivated. - Expectations can sometimes be unclear or change quickly. - Formal personal/professional development systems have not yet been put in place.
