Pros

There are absolutely people who shoot up the ladder based on nepotism. I suspect that’s your thing if you’re reading the Pros

Cons

Schrodinger obscures it’s good candidates by founder and executive charade who echo its BS toxic work culture engrained in a dysfunctional and nepotistic IT startup management notwithstanding or perhaps including it’s forever jet setting conferences from coast to coast that ignore the essence of time & free lunches to buy your silence. Too much pressure on your top people or too much on their plates that does not interest them or even ostracizing them without listening to their feedback - and you will bleed people.

Pros

Cool/talented people, nice office, catered lunches, interesting product. The office would often host cool science-related events with people showing off their research.

Cons

Team didn't feel very much like a team, everyone kept to themselves and there's little in the way of collaboration, information sharing, and help. The team felt very cold and isolating (everyone sitting in the same room with headphones on the whole time) which was disappointing when walking around the office and seeing other teams talk, laugh, and make being in the office feel worthwhile. Onboarding was minimal and fraught with issues (took forever to be given access to things, etc.), and with little documentation it was difficult to get started. Feedback felt inadequate. While teammates were nice and could be helpful, no one felt very approachable and it often felt like asking questions was a nuisance.
