Pros

Wonderful company, great community with planned group activities and encouraged time off. Loved the scientific discussion and the down to earth feel of the people. On the science side - loved the work and exploring Amino Acid therapeutic opportunities in complex metabolic diseases.

Cons

- Company could no longer support work force and laid off 85% of employees - The fast paced work and lack of experimental knowledge from management led to many people in the lab setting burning out
