Telik consistently demonstrated their willingness to promote from within the company before hiring from the outside; they recognized a job well-done with either a bonus or some other award; individuals are surrounded by highly gifted and educated people from whom one can learn so much. As a whole, they are a respectful and compassionate group.
Svantaggi
It is now out-of-business. MabVax Therapeutics in San Diego, CA acquired Telik in a reverse-merger. If they start hiring, MabVax is a great company in their own right and would be well-worth re-locating to go work for them.
