Pros

free snacks, small company, flexible hours, stock options, cool technology

Cons

Management can't decide which direction to go, projects change unexpectedly, expect employees to work in multiple departments (media, sales, engineering, biological testing) based more on the investors ideas than on the employees skills.

Genalyte Response

The reality is that a startup environment is not for everyone. One person’s con is another's perk. The ability to follow various paths and wear many hats until you strike the right combo can be exciting to many. At Genalyte, evolution has resulted in a business that blends software, services & hardware. We are excited by our direction and confident that our combination of talent and technology will lead to success. Plus we have great snacks!

I was made to feel like a part of the team very quickly. The culture here is very supportive and collaborative, and each employee was committed to Genalyte's goals and aspirations. I felt like the division of work among team members was excellent and made for a very efficient workflow. I was exposed to various fields of engineering and gained a multitude of skills that will help me throughout my career.

Cons

I had a great summer experience as an intern!
