I worked for a while at a consultancy supporting genomics through LIMS (lab info management software) customization, so not really genomics, but in the genomics biz (big genomics companies were our clients). For me, it was the least interesting software work I have done in my 20 year coding career. On the other hand, for people who just wanted a steady pay cheque and to go home at 5pm, it was a good gig. But man, software that moves samples and test tubes and their data around, it could be cars in a parking lot for all that the science makes it interesting.
We had bad attrition to both more interesting and higher paying work. (I left for both after a year at the consultancy)
