Helping You Manage a Busy Life

From employee assistance programs, which provide free, confidential counseling and financial or legal advice, to tuition assistance programs that reimburse you up to $10,000 per year to attend school and gain valuable new skills and knowledge, Genentech provides you with a great many added benefits to make it easier to enjoy a work-life balance that keeps you motivated and happy.

These "extras" are as varied and diverse as the people who work at Genentech, but they're all designed to deliver convenience. For instance, a highly valuable (and often used) feature of our benefits program is our on-site childcare center. Located on our South San Francisco campus, this center allows working parents the flexibility they need while caring for a child and the peace-of-mind they require to know their child is nearby and properly cared for.

Full-service cafeterias are available at all of our locations, providing a wide variety of reduced cost food options to fit your lifestyle. For employees in a rush, we also offer food at our many Grab & Go locations, as well as fresh espresso, coffee and tea in our campus break rooms.

Additional Onsite Services:

  • Haircuts
  • Weekly car washes
  • Concierge and travel arrangements
  • Private rooms for nursing mothers

Of course, there are always employee activities you can take part in at your convenience. Ho-Hos, a Genentech tradition, are a bi-monthly company get-together that allows you to unwind and become better connected with your colleagues. We also provide a number of recreational discounts to area museums and attractions, such as Disneyland and the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, as well as sponsoring employee sports teams in league activities.
