Pluspunten
1) culture: really smart, decicated, and respectuful colleagues 2) management transparent communication: well, that is pre-Roche period 3) amazing professional growth opportunity: wealth of professional techinical and soft-skill courses to take on campus (and off campus); i'm also lucky to have a wonderful effective manager.
Minpunten
1) management lack of communication: GNE management are honest that Roche does not share as much information as GNE Sr Leadership did. 2) fearful in loss of compensation and benefits: salary at GNE is on par with market, but what makes GNE extra special is the bonus, benefits, and stock options. we fear that we'll be losing most of our bonus and our wonderful health etc benefits. they have already started to be stingy with lunch meetings, travel, and just about any other little perky-appreciation item. All of us are "demoted" when we come to GNE, e.g. director to manager, manager to associate etc, AND the promotion opportunities are limited, so the bonuses and perks to make up for a big part of why most of us are here.
