Review from Engineering Dept

I love the interaction between coworkers and departments. Most departments collaborate and it enhances our culture.

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

I would feel better about my experience if I had a clearer view of how I fit into the company and felt more like I can actually affect the change and progress that I'd like to. I'd also like to feel more supported in seeking those growth opportunities for myself.

Need to focus on the right thing not blown money into plausible ideas

I love its mission, vision and my colleagues

It does feel like the company still retains a little bit of the "start up" culture wherein people seem excited about what they're trying to do and there's a lot of cross-functional collaboration. 23andMe also definitely clearly cares about being mission-driven.

more business opportunities in order for the company to grow and expand

Review from Engineering Dept

Follow-through on projects and promises.
