Genentech reviews

Many great scientists left over the years the ones who stayed often tended to be arrogant, incompetent, and still live in their bubble, which resulted in below-than-industry-average R&D productivity. There have been so many failures with limited success in recent years, Lampa, lebri, Etro, PTX-2, Ipat, pralsetinib, cancer vaccine, and sky06. You can't always blame Roche for failures. Rarely was management held accountable for the horrible decision-making and the dysfunctional reward system

Upper management is very unpredictable and often would not listen or find ways to assist when being short-staffed. If anything, they seemed to make the work life more difficult and expected consistently high output of work despite losing a team mate, leading to burnout and stress. Your experience, including the culture, is incredibly dependent on the teammates and location.
