Vantaggi
Apparently a very solid long term investor who is willing to foot the bill for 10+ yrs (not a traditional VC financed biotech). Some really good people at PhD level in biology and chemistry departments. Nice new facilities. Good work-life balance as nobody feels like they will lose their job any time soon.
Svantaggi
An absent CEO who doesn't deliver on his promises to employees. Upper levels of management have too much control and no respect for some directors (who are pretty ineffective but remain in employed). A lot of unhappy employees creates a negative atmosphere and no incentives to work hard. A history of botched handling of annual bonuses and performance review leads to lack of faith in employees that efforts are rewarded so nobody tries too hard, "what's the point" attitude is pervasive.
