GenScript reviews about "management"

Everything is a mess in this company. The management is extremely unprofessional, especially the mid-level FAS manager scientists.

No system and proper management

Workload can be unpredictable, although management tries to avoid production overtime whenever possible

Despite branding itself as a global company that values its people, the reality is quite different. The workplace is dominated by nepotism and questionable practices. If you don’t speak Chinese, you’ll likely be marginalized, regardless of your qualifications or performance. Leadership roles are often given to individuals close to senior management in China, even if they lack the necessary skills or English proficiency. There’s a serious disconnect between the leadership team and the realities of the U.S. market and customer needs.

Despite being here for almost two years, any feedback I made since I first joined has barely been implemented or improved on. They love waiting until someone makes a mistake before implementing changes. Not that the CAPAs they suggest really help. Most mistakes were already pointed out as high risk before the mistake was made. Still have issues half heartedly translating the system and documents used. When operator makes mistake due to translation issues or worse, lack of translations, middle management love blaming operator. Their favourite thing to say : "XX(non chinese local staff) can recognize at least 6 chinese characters, why can't you remember these 2 simple ones? Can't you see these 2 set of words are different? If you really can't tell just use Google translate." In summary: they love to blame you for your mistakes and suggest corrective actions that only create more work for already overworked staff. Even overheard the supervisor recently ask why can't locals just learn Chinese instead.

Management can be unclear and sometimes rude.

Bad management without foresight and not supportive

Low chances of career growth, and stangnant salaries

Disorganized, management changes things on a whim with no regard for employees, language barrier, schedule is super inconsistent
