Pros

- The SSF campus is stunning - The Genentech people are generally very nice - The work is super impactful, everyone seems tuned into the mission of helping patients - Lots of commuting options to campus - My global Roche colleagues were cool

Cons

- lots of drama and gossip at the managerial level - tedious and repetitive work - The work wasn't intense but you could easily have meetings scheduled from 7am to 7pm due to global teams

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.
