Vantaggi
-Genentech makes a great effort of hiring smart and capable people, so most of your co-workers are great to work with -Nice campus and amenities -Okay salary
Svantaggi
Basically everything related to culture. -Maybe you'll have a team outing twice a year if that, no sense of community within departments -One manager for a lot of employees so barely any time to discuss career opportunities, feels like very limited interaction with manager -Promotion structure is terrible if you're entry-mid level and only happens in infrequent cycles (once-twice a year max). So many hoops to jump through to get promoted, but they're more than happy to bring in external hires above you that you'll end up training. -Management is out of touch with their employees experience despite receiving feedback -High contractor turnover so always dealing with people "getting up to speed"
