Pros

- (At my site) most of the people are supportive, friendly and easy to deal with. I made a lot of friends out of my coworkers. Had a lot of fun time, definitely much more than I'd expect. Very nice HR and some other teams to help you - (At my site) not too much drama or toxic working environment that you have to live under pressure. I feel chill - No racism or descrimination. I can see some people are making things up and complaining about being "descriminated". If you see how busy the people are here, you know there's no way people would even have time to discriminate you. Please have some self-esteem and stop blaming others for things they never did. If you feel discriminated, you can always speak up, instead of leaving misinformation behind a screen as a excuse of your L's. - (For me) Decent pay. Not comparable to huge corps but definitely not too cheap - Have fun learning bio tech stuff if you are interested - Good work and life balance. Never felt pressured even after work

Cons

- Your experience may heavily depends on your department and manager - Working with different departments in different time zones and different languages may slow your work down - You probably will struggle everytime when it comes to budget for anything - Some managers are hard to work with
