GRAIL reviews

Leadership is out of touch with how to best get things done, and doesn't appreciate that highly educated and experienced people who don't have background in biopharma/device space are not necessarily qualified to hold the positions they do. This leads to a lot of bad decisions, unnecessary delays and resentment from doers who are more knowledgeable than the decision-makers in their functions and organizations. People who are good at managing up often get rewarded in the absence of any real accomplishments, which leads to promotion of incompetence that perpetuates the cycle.

Senior management is extremely arrogant. The president has named a major part of the organization after himself, the "offman" organization. Senior management has mandated that there are no offices, that being said all of the leadership team has staked out offices for themselves. Senior leadership is very much a club where they are very friendly to each other and completely ignore those beneath them.
