Pros

Genentech truly cares about their employees and ensuring we have what we need to do our best work for our patients. Genentech also believes in D&I and has set up many initiatives to ensure everyone has an equal opportunity. People are great to work with, the work environment is fantastic to ensure our best work, and of course, the benefits are amazing.

Cons

Like many companies (but maybe not so much in Tech), sometimes it can be challenging to move up the ladder due to lack of available upward avenues but there are many options to move laterally.

Pros

It is a great company with good benefits. They are doing solid science and trying to improve the quality of people‘s life. One of the best places in the world to learn pharmaceutical sciences. It’s a great experience especially for people fresh out of academia.

Cons

The career path for scientific researchers is pretty limited. Also, it’s not the greatest place if you want to do innovative science. Like other big pharma, they rely on buying other small companies.
