      Pros

      -You're working for a great cause. - Very collegiate atmosphere. - Employees given perks that align with good economic times in the bay area. - Educational events for their latest innovations. Child care services on site.

      Cons

      - A bit too political. - A bit of arrogance on behalf of GI (Genentec Informatics - IT) management. - Immature leadership at the first level management. - Punitive environment for speaking up. - Strong direction in leadership roles is not rewarded. - Roche is considered a 'close', locked down environment. Genentech, on the other hand is open to access ideas and data. I'm concerned Genentech may lose this type of information sharing as they integrate with Roche.

      Great salary and team! The interview process was smooth and effective.

      To be determined, but so far many alignment meetings. Some folks have frustuations around the re-org and strategy changes.

      Pros

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

      Cons

      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.
