Pros

- Exposure to healthcare and genomics domain projects. - Opportunity to work with cross-functional teams and complex products. - Some teams provide good learning opportunities depending on the manager.

Cons

- Data security practices are extremely concerning. Sensitive production credentials are reportedly shared among employees, and in some cases used for activities like load testing, which raises serious compliance and governance questions. - Employees who raise concerns about security or process gaps often feel ignored, with little or no corrective action taken by leadership. - Layoffs appear poorly managed and are perceived as a way to remove even long-serving and loyal employees without transparency. - Workplace culture suffers from favoritism and groupism, impacting growth opportunities, recognition, and fair treatment. - Product competitiveness and innovation appear weak compared to market standards. - Overall work environment can feel stressful, politically driven, and unsupportive for employees seeking ethical and quality-focused engineering practices.
