I worked at Seattle Genetics full-time (More than 3 years)
Pros
Excellent benefits, great pay, the work they do there is top notch!
Cons
Management and communication with management is terrible. So much competition and infighting they will not help you succeed and actively help you fail once your reputation is damaged. The internal processes are overly complicated and full of workarounds due to no one being willing to admit processes are not optimal and try new approaches. Relationships with vendors is detrimental due to lack of willingness to admit internal policies are not optimal. Little to no upward mobility. Promotions are hired from outside rather then promoted from within.
Advice to Management
Stop competing with each other and employees, learn to be more flexible and willing to pivot to/try out different ideas.
