Good company to work for with no significant downsides - On Site Support Gilead Sciences Employee Review

Gilead is a great company to work for offering really nice benefits, bonuses, stock, 401K match, etc. and in recent years a good work-life balance culture.

The advancement process is often murky and based more on being visible and networking than on the quality of your work.

-The only pros are the amazing benefits - probably the best 401K I've seen as well as the highly competitive salaries.

-Lack of culture is a growing and rampant issue - there is a very high level of favoritism -Micromanagement from senior leadership - instances occuered where they essentially forced an employee to resign and not directly fire him/her just so that they wouldn't have to pay severence package, etc. Managers want to just make themselves look good and make it clear that your only job is to acf as if they are God's gift to this messed up planet. -Lack of proper communication and frequent unnecessary team meetings held which are a waste of time and do not accomplish any desirable results.
