So today I finally serve my divorce papers in my marriage to, what was once, the best company to work for in the Bay Area. Why ? Some bright spark of a senior VP in SSF has decided to save some $$ by squeezing in as many people into a few floors in Building 83 at Gateway. Great, he'll meet his savings targets but the company will end up losing much more - like all the good people who have been downgraded to a cube, people like me, managers, all have had what was the only piece of 'status' left to cling to now taken away as their career prospects evaporated over the last few years courtesy of Mr Roche. I move into my new 'home' soon, well guess what I'll be doing from there on in ? Not my job, no, looking for a new one and getting the hell away as soon as I can. Goodbye Genentech - it's been a trip - but one that has now ended. Oh, that VP ? The one that ultimately will cost you much more $$ than his few million saved ? - make sure he gets his bonus next year,won't you.
