JCVI management knew about the layoffs months before they happened (private grant was not renewed), but didn't make an announcement to the employees. Of course, rumors got out, they were denied by management, and all of a sudden everyone had two weeks notice. I think this shows a general lack of respect for the employees.

When they broke ground in California to build another institute, the remaining people were told it would be in addition to the Rockville facility, and only found out the Rockville site was closing after seeing a press release.

With all due respect for Venter's contributions to the field, he seems like a dick to work for.

His loss is our gain though, we hired some of his very talented former employees.
