Because the Head of USMA was just out of control thinking she has JF eatting out of her palm/wrapped around her finger! She gave zero latitude to make any decisions for me and my team bc she wants to control everything and has little to no confidence in the people she has hired under her. Her one on ones with her staff and skip levels consist of her pinning people against each other, asking who they think is competent or isn't competent, creating division amongst collegeaues and between managers and direct reports and trying to take over field medical bc she wants to control it all. Her leadership style is by ruling with FEAR and using communication and language as a crux to get away with the inappropriate comments she makes to team members to put them down or be dismissive. I've never in my whole career have worked for someone so inconsiderate, rude and has such a blantent disregard for company culture and day by day destroying what used to make Genentech such a wonderful place to work.
JF if you plan on sticking around for longer, remove the wool over your eyes, and really ask yourself - is this VP bringing your organization together truely? is she inspiring and motivating the teams below her to flourish? is she even thinking about or completing the required D&I trainings? Because her actions are certainly not lining up to what is being expected of Genentech employees which makes people wonder if that behavior is tolerated at the TOP why does anyone else need to abide. She needs some serious executive coaching if you plan to having her continue to lead these teams!
I thought long and hard before I decided to post this because I think people externally even considering joining this organization should know what they are getting themselves into. Genentech is no longer the place it used to be, but from my colleagues who still work there I've heard even their external postings for new roles are barely attracting talent so I guess word is in fact getting around. So unfortunate for a company with such great potential and a great pipeline of assets falling apart like this.
