Pros

Experience here was pretty bad that I had to make a Glassdoor Review. New office is pretty modern. Pay was $80k - $95k so that was neat to do basic admin work.

Cons

Not an EE but I am writing this so people are aware about how awful this HR department is. They are always hiring and firing - SO BE WARY. It is NOT growth. HR takes you through a gauntlet of interviews totaling to SEVEN. HOW MANY INTERVIEWS DO YOU NEED TO MAKE A DECISION? This includes a 4 HOUR on site interview. After that, just GHOSTED. Like really?

Pros

I joined Xencor because I felt like my research skills and interest in antibodies were really well aligned.

Cons

Unfortunately, as promising as the science is, the political climate here is devastating and gets in the way of doing good work. Leadership does nothing about the internal one up-manship and fighting. Also, it's a major hotbed for gossip and that happens in departments that should very much know better.
