The company is open to innovation and readily adopts latest technology. I feel proud that I was a part of a research team. We work independently as well as in collaboration in a very cooperative environment.

Salary is decent but growth is slow. Sometimes, I have to work 16- 18 hours in a day as I have to do cell culture and sometimes late into the night which is fine because cell culture demands time and patience.
