Pros
- Helpful and very knowledgeable teammates who can help you grow, especially as an intern - Company has a positive and feel-good mission in the field of genomics - Founder/CEO seems knowledgeable and has a vision for growth - Your contribution is valued, even as an intern, and feedback is given when taking the initiative to ask for it - Freedom to take charge on how tasks are completed with minimal micromanagement - Pay is in line with the matrix average (assuming standard work hours) - Good culture such as an optional (and virtual) team game every week
Cons
- Startup has the usual growing pains of an expanding company. Sometimes teams get reshuffled or have members working on differing priorities. Flexibility working on differing projects at once is a good trait to have. - Some processes and writing are not well defined yet. However, there is discussion happening around this and there is opportunity to give input/feedback.
