ok - Recensione dipendente - Software Engineer presso BERG

Great people Fun projects Freedom to pursue new initiatives and ideas

Macro shocks can impact pipeline of deals and opportunities.

Berg is actively striving to create and maintain a good, healthy, family-friendly corporate culture. I believe this goal is genuine. There are many opportunities for fun, employee interaction, like summer outings, frequent potlucks and things like chili contests and birthday and Diwali celebrations. I think the particular AI-driven niche the company has carved out and is leading with is a good strategy. There are good, highly driven people here working toward admirable, well-thought-out goals in oncology and neurology.

There are some growing pains and stresses in the company as we grow from a small, rather insulated start-up to a solid, mid-size company with multiple outside collaborators and more diverse funding. Sometimes management does not give sufficient weight or demonstrate sufficient concern -in my opinion- to the complaints and frustrations of the lab personnel who do the bulk of the actual scientific work at Berg. There remain some aspects of the daily workflow here which may not yet be up to the standards of some of the larger, more established companies- such as rather informal, non-electronic notebook keeping, sometimes somewhat cramped desk/seating conditions and some lab equipment and software which could use updating- however, I stress that we are still quite capable of producing good, rigorous work here.
