"Genentech's secret, anybody here (at Genentech) will tell you, is its culture."1 - A Fortune article, in 2006. "The vast majority of our employees are motivated to come to work each day because they're making a difference in people's lives. Our people know that there are patients out there who benefit from what we're doing. This is a tremendous driving force for our culture and how our people think about themselves and our work."2 - Louis Lavigne, Senior Vice President and CFO of Genentech Inc., in 2004. Genentech Recognized
