> and the work literally saves and prolongs lives

I have literally yet to see a medical-adjacent company not default to assuming they’re on the moral high ground.

When I see companies say “we save lives” my initial reaction is no different from companies that say “we hire the best” or laws that “are for the children”.

Yeah, I mean it sucks. Investors want returns. Employees want competitive salaries. There’s lots of greed in the world. I don’t have any answers for you, I’m just trying to help really smart people move the needle on this cancer thing and yeah, I like that I get paid competitively.
Totally. And I didn’t mean to call you or your company out specifically. Actually sounds interesting.

Maps Street View of 1428 Bush St, San Francisco is more of what I have in mind. But maybe I’ve just passed that building one too many times.
