Interesting... but Confusing
|
|
Exciting, innovative projects to work on.
Good-natured, talented, professional coworkers.
|
Higher level management doesn't quite know what they want the company to do/be.
In times of financial trouble, they cut snacks...

Management needs to make up their minds in a timely manner--not 9 months of foot-dragging.
Fewer meetings, more decision making.

Good experience
|
|
Transparent internal communication from the top down, focus on responsible practices, and employee empowerment/support has historically been a priority; culture is generally very supportive and work-life balance is excellent
|
Size and rapid growth of company makes it unclear who’s responsible for what at times, and shared responsibilities can fall to the wayside; similarly, can be hard to get and stay organized as a team in a rapidly changing environment

Great company, great people, great benefits
|
|
All my coworkers are hardworking and nice people. There are a lot of extra perks that come along with working here like free dinners for the late shift and a free meal on weekends for weekend shift people.
|
There's a lot of changes going on at Ginkgo right now to meet a budget goal, so some perks are now being changed or cut back on.

Potentially bright future. Can we thread the needle?
|
|
- Great work culture. Highly depends on the team you're on (as with most companies)
- Fair compensation
- Pretty good benefits
- Emphasis on worker ownership, not just in platitudes, but in stock and voting power
- Great transparency
|
The company makes revenue, but it remains to be seen if a profit can be made. Ginkgo certainly has the potential to be a powerhouse in the synthetic biology space, but whether or not it can succeed remains to be seen.
