      Pros

      Cemvita is a fantastic biotech startup to be in if you are interested in the energy transition/sustainability space. The science is novel (applications of native and engineered microbes in diverse industries) and the expected results could be groundbreaking in the heavy industries. The executive team, VPs and project leads are passionate about what we do but also very much support employee health and work life balance. The future of this company is bright.

      Cons

      As the company is so young, there are typical growing pains. The gradual addition of structure has been frustrating to some employees, such that adaptability is necessary. The salary is slightly lower than similar offers I received in the major biotech hubs (Boston, San Fran).

        Pros

        -Ambitious, exciting plans and vision -Work-life balance and positive company culture are prioritized -We have the resources we need to achieve our work goals (good equipment, technology, expertise) -Opportunities for professional growth

        Cons

        -Organization is currently a bit "top heavy," scientists outnumber research assistants and associates -We are still in the process of developing organizational systems and reporting structures. Active progress is being made, this is an inevitable challenge for a fast-growing company -No 401K (as of Nov. 2022, we have been promised this will change soon)

      Marketing Manager

      What are people’s thoughts on those personality and logic tests some companies made you do as part of the hiring process? I frankly don’t like them. I understand if the test is for people who more technical but for roles leaning more creative or ideas based - I don’t understand how patterns I’m forced to review in a short time tells them I’m worth it to get the Hiring manager round. One asked me 50 ques in 15 min. And they never tell how you did on the tests

      Brand Marketing Strategist

      Anyone have any stories of times where you declined an offer at one company (just because it wasn’t the exact right fit or you got another better offer at that time) and u successfully re-connect? Is that a burned bridge forever? Would they consider you for another job again?
