Pros

Unique place -- academic, innovative, smart, nice. San Francisco an amazing place to work and live. Good investment in people, culture. Great products.

Cons

Was just sold, so everything that made BGI unique will inevitably change. Time will tell how much, but new owner is another big success story.

Pros

Can’t think of 1. Not even 1.

Cons

Pay is the lowest compared to similar company with the same role. Upper management speaks to staff with a patronizing tone; cutting them off, and talking down to them. At times it felt like they purposefully were attempting to find things wrong instead of working together as a team to meet objectives. Understaffed. Fully expected to do the work of a team of 6 despite being a team of 2 for example.
