Pros

I got to learn a lot by myself during my time at both Transcendent Endeavors (the parent company) and Canopy Innovations. It was a great journey as long as I managed to get leadership out of my team's way and actually accomplish things.

Cons

The positive reviews posted here are fake - and have been reported to Glassdoor several times by different employees, without success because the CEO's Executive Assistant has been posting them using different, newly created, email accounts. There are more fake positive reviews than actual employees. That relates a lot to the type of (or lack of?) management that governs the company through its CEO: the company culture is sad to look at, with the CEO pushing for sales of products that are not close to being developed, and actually signing commercial contracts that will not be honored. Another problem is that the CEO's knowledge of business is surprisingly limited, despite having gone to NYU Stern for his undergrad - he will not only wrongly employ buzzwords, but will also try to implement concepts that are created in his own head and that have no possible real-world application. It is especially sad because the products that were supposed to be developed target the underserved population, and even though the NIH funding was supposed to be behind the development of this ideas, it is actually being used in a different way.

Pros

Intellectual and creative freedom, big dreams, ambitious execution, and a rewarding mission. Amazing teammates with outrageous talent. The research and engineering teams are especially strong. Leadership has a big vision.

Cons

Not everyone likes a high-intensity atmosphere. Low performers are fired, even moderately good performers are PIP'ed. Only high performers are rewarded. Make sure you are happy to meet a high bar.

Pros

Employees all work hard, are brilliant, really care about the work they are doing, and give it their all You get to work on products that matter and will actually help people You will learn a lot No two days are the same Good benefits (health, vision, dental, 401Kmatch, equity... ) Flexible schedule, work from anywhere in the US

Cons

It's really hard! There is the inherent startup risk. At least for now, the company relies on NIH funding, which makes things pretty uncertain. Live collaboration takes A LOT of time. Wish there was more PTO
