In addition to being passionate about their everyday work, people at Genentech care deeply about making a positive impact in their communities. It’s at the core of who we are.
The Science of Good
We are committed to advancing science for the greater good.
As we tackle some of the world’s most complex health problems, we do so knowing that diversity and inclusion drives innovation, that we must develop and deliver medicines in an environmentally, economically and socially responsible way, and that the ways we give back — through our charitable giving and employee time and talent — can have a powerful impact on our local communities.
Dig Deep.
We believe we can make a difference by harnessing our passion for problem solving and empowering our employees to give back.
