Genentech appears to have adopted the “no jerks” rule. The vast majority of people are collaborative, positive, and helpful. Even people in the C-suite are approachable and treat employees with respect. With that also comes a lot of respect for time outside of work. Vacations are expected; longer time out of office is backfilled to ensure that work (and guilt) doesn’t pile up. It is a great company for someone who has family members to care for.

There have been a lot of organizational changes the past few years. Just when you think you hit a groove, something changes. It can be frustrating at times.

QA management has become inept. None of the leadership (aside from maybe one or two) truly understand the nuances of our site and jobs. They refuse to pay you more due to "budget" reasons but won't provide much information, they claim to be transparent but will make decisions behind your back and not communicate them, even if they impact you and/or your job. Leadership doesn't listen to feedback and gets defensive if you even try to give any. It honestly has become a game of politics only in QA and that's not really building any real quality culture.
