Pros

Better than not having a job

Cons

This company is being destroyed by incompetent management, favoritism, and questionable business practices, to name a few. Joining Kite has been the worst thing I could do for my professional career. The poor substance of the pipeline and poor sales proves that management doesn't know how to operate a biotech company. One of the root causes of Kite's problems are self-serving executives who put their personal interests ahead of the business, leading to loss of talent and very poor decision making. I have never experienced this level of behavior in my prior professional life in biotech. Not sure why Gilead still has Kite on their book, it has been and always will remain a liability.
