Pros
Direct management and team are intelligent, driven, and all around incredible people to work with. Most people VP and below are great and want to work hard and doing good things to make a positive difference in the world.
Cons
Francis and other C-levels appointed by Francis are not trustworthy. Who pays themselves double the same year they lay off 5% of the workforce? There are so many budget cuts that are not allowing us to fully do our jobs, and Francis gets an$14 Million pay raise?! For what?! We cannot even travel to visit our customers and product launches are constantly delayed due to limited budget and resources. Every team is under staffed and over worked. That $14M pay raise could have been used to staff up our teams and allow us to properly execute our jobs. Instead Francis is lining his already very large pockets with even more money? Makes absolutely no sense, seems very corrupt, and is totally inconsistent with Illumina values.
