The supervisors are hands off but always willing to help if you have a concern. The medical, dental, 401k plan, ESPP and other benefits are industry best. The yearly bonuses are very nice too. My only complaint is that it's too far from my house. Mostly everyone has to commute because the cost of living in Marin and Sonoma County is astronomical.

nasdaq:bmrn https://www.indeed.com/cmp/biomarin/reviews Dec 24th, 2020 12:00AM Open Open BioMarin Research Associate II (Former Employee) San Rafael, CA 94901 Great people and a fun place to work BioMarin is a good company, the people work very hard and there is a wide variety of people with impressive skills. It is easy to talk to people and the culture is largely positive.I was an RA in the research department, working on developing drug screening assays. The research department is a fun place to work, the RAs have created a community of support and encouragement, it is quite inspiring. That said, management is BioMarin’s biggest hurdle. The promotion system is far too subjective and largely undefined. Personally, I found management, especially senior management, are quite out of touch with their employee base. Management needs to listen to their employees and do a much better job of training managers to build up their staff, rather than just hoping they succeed. People, culture and facilities.

nasdaq:bmrn https://www.indeed.com/cmp/biomarin/reviews Dec 21st, 2020 12:00AM Open Open Open BioMarin Engineer Novato, CA USA Your experience will vary depending on the department and manager In general, pay and compensation are good. However your experience will vary depending on your department and manager. Some are great, others are standard corporate environments, and some are quite frankly toxic. Departments related to technical operations and production tend to have management who are bullies. It is a very top-heavy organization. There seems to be multiple " direct managers/directors/schedulers/project managers" for every individual contributor doing actual work. In fact, many meetings seemed to have 4-5 "manager" types and only 1-2 engineers who were responsible for doing the actual work. Hard workers who actually contribute and care about doing a good job are exploited. These workers will never see a promotion or be allowed to transfer because they are "too good" at their jobs. People on the management track tend to have promotions or transfers come fast and easy, on a yearly basis it seems. While the individual contributors will be stuck in their current position for years with no promotions and having their internal transfer requests denied. Over the past several years, there have been some unsuccessful re-orgs which changed the company culture. The "Dilbert Effect" seems to be in full force. People from the VP level down to experienced individual contributors such as technicians, associates, analysts, and engineers have walked out the door.

nasdaq:bmrn https://www.indeed.com/cmp/biomarin/reviews Dec 15th, 2020 12:00AM Open Open BioMarin Sr. Manager (Current Employee) CA CAN Company's purpose is meaningful and vital BioMarin's products are for rare diseases which in some cases literally are the difference between life and death in children. The company is also patient- driven and will spend all the development costs required to enter a market in a country for literally one patient. That kind of drive and concern for patients is engaging to be a part of. The work being done truly matters and it is not just working for a paycheck for a company just trying to make money. 0.0 0.0 5.0 3.0 5.0 4.0 5.0 4.0 Dec 16th, 2020 05:14AM Dec 16th, 2020 05:14AM BioMarin Pharmaceutical Health Care Pharmaceuticals & Biotechnology
