Avoid at all costs - Technical Consultant Roche Employee Review

Roche UK and Ireland is a company that speaks about their values of honesty and integrity without actually exhibiting them at all. I found them to be dishonest and in no way care about the patients we provide services toward. The company is only focused on maximizing profit at all cost. They advertise salaries as being market leading, but they pay between 80 - 120 % of the median market salary. I was one of the most experienced consultants on the team when I left and after 7 years of year on year pay increases I was on scale at 81%. It turns out I was payed significantly lower than everyone else on the team.When taking the job after a restructuring I was told that, based on our experience, we would all be on the same salary scale and bonus structures. However after speaking with some of my team mates I found out that this was not the case. When I raised the issue, I was repeatedly lied to about my salary in relation to the team until I showed them the payslips two of my colleagues shared with me. Their HR policies only catered for their UK based staff and even at that the focus was primarily geared towards their office based employees. The driver training the provided only catered for UK roads and they provided none for the ROI. Another example was they mandated Hep B immunity level to be retested every 5 years, but in Ireland (and the majority of the world) guidance was updated to say once achieved immunity is life long. As a result it's not possible to get retested 9nce immunity is proven. I said this to management/HR and that my GP would not test me. Their response was to find another GP and lie about my medical history to get the test done. I joined the D&I team in order to help correct these issues and was advised by senior management (including a director of Ireland) to stop doing so. Career progression is primarily based on you're liked by senior management and not on your ability to perform at your role or your skillet. Also you are significantly hampered if you have a field based role. The work-life balance was also very poor with regular long hours expected, in particular around responding to tenders.
