Tempus

Really interesting clinical work and a powerful mission statement. You'll get to work with some top-tier scientists. The only real benefit is unlimited PTO and a pretty good WLB, but that varies team to team.

Compensation is laughable, and management makes pretty much zero effort to fix it.

If you ask for a raise, you'll get laughed at. They gave zero adjustment for inflation.

For reference, in the two years I was here, I got a 2% raise on two separate occasions.

When asked about why compensation is so bad, the CEO said, "We're not here to make money, we're here to cure cancer." Easy to say when you're a multi-billionaire, Eric.

If you have a bad manager, like I did, you're SOL. You won't get promoted, no one will vouch for you, and you'll end up backfilling more senior engineers as they quit, inheriting their responsibility but not their salary or title.

Pretty much zero accountability from management.

Attrition is god-awful.

They said we were supposed to IPO six months ago and then didn't, and gave us zero information about the situation. We're all in the dark.

Pay people better. Be more transparent. Give people better incentives to work rather than "The mission is cool." There are so many employees here who are silent quitting because the pay is about 40% below market rate.
