      Pros

      Great benefits and PTO. The campus is nice and company has growth with acquisitions and within the industry.

      Cons

      Management proclaims a certain culture, but they do to live it. Their internal survey ranked high because there are so many new employees who haven't learned what is really under the hood. Highly political and hierarchal. It would depend what area you work in and who you work for on how you will do. Go to Genentech which they own better environment and culture.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great people, great benefits, good culture, excellent opportunities if you are in the right place at the right time and have forged alliances with Senior Leadership

      Cons

      Constant reorganization, huge layoffs that have undermined our knowledge base, critical people let go while others that are less impactful remain due to not having any strategy with layoffs and people retention. A void has been left in Pleasanton.

      Pros

      -Benefits are well-rounded, although have been slightly worse recently -90 minutes of breaks, 1-hr paid -Most people have a degree of integrity and respect towards one another

      Cons

      -Arrogant and frankly unqualified management; highly questionable work ethics and non-existent communication between shifts or between managers and employees -Layoff hundreds of employees, only to use employees left from other departments to fill in the gap, displaying lack of foresight -Constant pressure to do more with little-to-no reward -Gradual decline in the perks of the job in spite of personal performance
