OriGene at a Glance:
OriGene’s greatest asset is our People! We understand that employees are the driving force behind our company's success. You might be wondering, then, how our employees know they are valued. We start by respecting a work-life balance. Our leaders recognize that our employees perform best when energized. Respecting employees’ time has contributed significantly to their happiness and innovative spirit. Every year, we host various events that let our staff unwind and get to know their colleagues, rather than sitting behind a desk all the time. We do this because we want our company culture to be one of solid teamwork and tolerance for the diverse group that we have here at OriGene. In addition, our employees have abundant access to learning, development, and mentorship throughout their time, and are recognized through annual merit increases and bonuses.
Looking ahead, OriGene has made many significant advancements in keeping our workspace green. Because labs use four times as much energy as a typical office environment, we have made many changes to reduce our environmental impact and ensure the longevity of our home.
We hope that future individuals joining our team are not only able to find a rewarding career but also a positive experience that lasts a lifetime.
