Pros

Still a lot of open, interesting scientific problems to tackle.

Cons

- A restricted group of managers originally hired by Genia's founders is still in charge of making all the important decisions. - Those same managers do not fully understand the fundamental scientific problems that need to be solved in order to deliver a product (DNA sequencing device) - People at the Roche HQ up in Pleasanton seem to be ok with it.
