      Pros

      I was very impressed with the salary and benefits at Genentech. And, while on Short Term Disability, the company made sure that I was financially made whole with each paycheck.

      Cons

      Genentech talks about work/life balance. However, this is not consistent across the organization. It is dependent on your manager and having a good manager is few and far between. My time at Genentech was not positive from a manager perspective. But, I did hear stories about good managers at Genentech (but not many) and their fairness regarding work/life balance. Same goes for approval to attend conferences or training. All depends on whether or not your manager has your back.

      Pros

      Genentech's origin story and mission are genuinely inspiring — few companies can point to such a meaningful historical arc in medicine. Patient engagement is taken seriously and feels authentic, not performative. The campus is beautiful and the culture has real warmth.

      Cons

      DDA is operating with significant gaps. First, the foundational data infrastructure is not mature enough to support the ambitions being set for the team. Second, the measurement culture has gotten ahead of the methodology, and no one in a position of authority seems to be asking hard questions about whether the numbers actually mean what they're being presented as meaning. Third, some management feel disconnected from the work itself, lacking the knowledge, hands-on experience, or relevant credentials. Individually any one of these would be manageable. Together these create an environment where it's hard to do rigorous work, rather work is performative, and be recognized for it.
