Thank you for your review and rating us as a great company! We do have some of the most talented individuals here and we’re happy we can offer comprehensive and competitive benefit programs for our employees. Being a part of an employee community that celebrates the little things we do every day is inspiring. However, we do recognize that there are areas we can improve on. For example, we often discuss the importance of work process improvements and are continually looking for ways to streamline our business processes. A shared philosophy at Genentech is that people can lead from any seat. That said, we encourage you to initiate a candid conversation with your manager, perhaps even invite some peers/colleagues to join-- and really talk about possible solutions to enacting change in your group. An approach like this is not only inclusive, but might spark some innovative ideas to improve your work processes. Thank you for taking the time to share a review. We appreciate your feedback!

Vantaggi

The work is meaningful and overall the company vision aligns with my goals

Svantaggi

QA management has become inept. None of the leadership (aside from maybe one or two) truly understand the nuances of our site and jobs. They refuse to pay you more due to "budget" reasons but won't provide much information, they claim to be transparent but will make decisions behind your back and not communicate them, even if they impact you and/or your job. Leadership doesn't listen to feedback and gets defensive if you even try to give any. It honestly has become a game of politics only in QA and that's not really building any real quality culture.
