Lots of Problems - Research Scientist System Biosciences Employee Review

SBI is a really family-friendly work environment. Management allows me a flexible schedule which helps in raising my family. My colleagues are smart, collaborative, and friendly. Colleagues frequently eat lunch together, often "potluck" style. Management goes out of their way to make a fun working environment including monthly birthday lunches, a yearly summer picnic for families, a yearly holiday party complete with gifts for employees, and a yearly company retreat for team building and planning. The products and services offered are innovative and interesting.

SBI is a small company, so expect to work hard here. You will take on several roles and need to step up to help your colleagues on a regular basis even if it's "not in your job title".

It was a good first industry job experience out of academia Learned a few things

Too much politics for the size of the company Leadership does not listen to employees There are no growth opportunities
