On June 20, 2011, Genentech was included on FORTUNE's 100 "Best Companies to Work For" list for the 13th consecutive year.
FORTUNE's annual list, administered by the Great Place to Work Institute (GPTWI) evaluates and selects companies based on a range of criteria. Two-thirds of a company's score is based on the results of the Institute's Trust Index survey, which is sent to a random sample of employees from each company. The survey asks questions related to their attitudes about management's credibility, job satisfaction and camaraderie. The other third of the scoring is based on the company's responses to the Institute's Culture Audit, which includes detailed questions about pay and benefit programs and a series of open-ended questions about hiring practices, internal communications, training, recognition programs and diversity efforts, among others.
