      Pros

      There are none because of the upper managements treated unfairly and favored his/her kids who work here. Therefore, the answer is still no........

      Cons

      This place is the most politic ever. That is what made a lot of people not happy and start to leave. Never thought this is happened here at Genentech. Think twice when applying.

      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.
