Pros
Kindness first culture that is a highlight of the employee experience. This is noticeable in the halls, just passing people to say hi and in the more programmatic aspects of the organization (company all hands, company events, scientific exchanges, lunch and learns). Can't forget about Thursday happy hours.
Steady Leadership. Our C-suite is incredibly approachable, takes the time to share with staff the vision and direction, and helps keep everyone motivated.
Novel science! Cell-free.
Great momentum, shared drive among colleagues.
Medical, dental and vision are covered 100%. Unlimited PTO, and additional days off during the year (August Fridays)!
Location is awesome. Building is beautiful. Gym, restaurant, outdoor bar. Also pretty centrally situated within San Carlos.
Cons
Vaxcyte is smaller in size, with big goals. Trying to get a lot done at the moment.
