Pros

great benefits. flexible hours and good work/life balance. friendly colleagues within the same site

Cons

lack of strong leadership. one-way communication with upper management. after M&A of Genentech, cut-throat research competition between different sites emerged. a little too much 9/5 mentality. unbalanced allocation of research resources among different sites

Pros

The benefits are great and the pay is better than most.

Cons

They care more about forcing efficiency measures than solving root problems. They want to enact "morale boost" events but refuse to ask why we were unhappy. This year they decided to devalue our pay and our efforts by giving everyone a static 2% raise
