Enough collective brain power to heat the room
Pros
The review title are actual words of an intern who spent a summer at Rostrum. The company is small, cozy, friendly, truly multicultural and young or young at heart. Employee commitment to science and teamwork is felt throughout the company. Work-life balance is attainable, as the top management is understanding of people's needs to adjust their schedule to satisfy their family and other activities.
Cons
1. While employees are offered free coffee and the perks of occasional pizza or BBQ lunches and after-hour beer Fridays, it would be nice to have a more established extended medical benefit program. There is one in place, but the coverage is lacking the range that other companies provide. 2. It would be nice to see more technology in payroll processing. While employees pay is probably on par, it would be nice to have that pay deposited directly to employees' accounts instead of receiving a paper paycheck every two weeks.
