Great innovative company - Senior Mechanical Engineer Illumina Employee Review

great benefits, good working culture

Has gone through a lot of change over the past few years but stable now...

Excellent pay, benefits, on-site amenities, and company culture in general; supportive peers.

The communications division was gutted in the first half of 2025 in one of the company's practically semiannual sweeping layoffs. From then on out, continuous managerial deck-chair rearranging created a miasma of instability, unclear and poorly reassigned job roles, and rock-bottom morale.
