Pros

People/Culture: I've worked on a few different teams and I've had overwhelming positive experiences Benefits: Decent health and dental, and I like the extra they give to put into a health/personal spending account Compensation: It's average to above average. Nothing too crazy, but it's often above industry average.

Cons

Senior Leadership: Like all big companies, upper management is very corporate. A lot of changes that seemingly make no sense besides boosting the stock price (and consequently, their pay checks) - Time: it's big, there's a lot of hand-offs that happen, and things just move slowly. It took 4 times as long to get access to certain data than we expected because of all of the people/organizations that needed to be involved Career Growth: Roche had a lot of reorgs and it's not mainly flat, so it's hard to progress in your role.

Pros

The benefits are good so far just like any other company

Cons

Terrible managers Employees are getting away with traveling without using PTO when they are on EDO because they are friends with managers. This raises concerns regarding fairness, policy compliance, and equitable treatment of employees. If the manager dont like you, Your life will be hell and they will find the stupidest mistakes to kick you out. Again, some people get away of not using their pto and they will travel and claim they are working while manager is okay with it. Bunch of hypocrites
