Business Outlook

Pros

good benefit. Working for a good cause. Roche has some outstanding (old) products.

Cons

Mafia-styled management culture. Even you do not know anything, as long as you board-lined belong to the gang, you are better off. Too many "professional" managers, not hands-on, do not know much about sequencing technology. All they do is to fight turf all day long. Age, gender discrimination are wide-spread, and encouraged.
