Promising company, but bad management and politics - Recensione dipendente - Scientist presso Xencor

Employees in management roles are lacking in these skills. The company should screen better for candidates hired for management positions. Company politics here will drive you mad. No input from non "higher up" employees. They sure value loyalty, because the people who were around in the beginning seem to rule from their thrones on the R&D side. The work environment is too fast paced and stressful. The scientists and research assistants are overworked and underappreciated although its their work that moves the company forward. The work culture here sucks - it was depressing to come to work everyday.
