Changes since Roche Takeover

Pros

Opportunity to learn international regulatory agency requirements and globalization. Genentech benefits (except for salary and bonus) still intact.

Cons

Management (middle and upper) is mired in politics and rhetoric. Workload is exponentially increased, technical infrastructure deteriorated significantly with Roche systems, and people just cannot get anything done without staying up all night to contact international counterparts.

Pros

Excellent salary, benefits, and co-workers. The company is stable with many commercial and clinical products. There are so many opportunities to make an impact it is breathtaking.

Cons

There is so much work to do and so few resources with which to do it. Management seems to be changing and getting more political. Decisions seem to have more to do with profit than with good science, which is a disappointing change from the past.
