      Pros

      Great scientific leadership with Dr. Persing and many others. The culture is focused on execution and the product is well liked by customers.

      Cons

      There is a pretty obvious bias against women. For example, in 2016 there was almost 100% turnover in Marketing. 3 men were hired in at Sr. Director level and 2 women hired in at Director level. For the 3 plus years at Cepheid there was a clear pattern of men getting promoted over more qualified women.

      Layoffs pretty much every quarter. Most of the good folks have left. The parent company makes decisions that directly impact associates at Cepheid
