Vantaggi

Free snacks and food at meetings. Gilead has a good 401k match as well.

Svantaggi

Where to begin.... -toxic culture/environment -management has no idea what’s ever going on but they expect employees to wear many caps to get the job done. Get ready to feel like you’re almost working two 9 to 5s. -Company seems to only work on retaining the bad employees. Favoritism is abound in this place. -clinical is horrible. A lot of grand egos who don’t actually know anything about the process, yet title/experience trumps Kite knowledge, apparently. -Poor hiring leads to incompetent people working, usually at the referral of incompetent managers/workers. -the idea that Kite Speed (silly term used to undermine the fact that employees are overworked and underpaid) is the only thing keeping this place going. A madhouse. - Commercial site is even worse. A lot of Baxter/Amgen vibes have mixed together to create something more toxic than either one. Also, most people are idiots. -Retention is the worst. So many people leaving. Sad!
