Pros

Fair pay scale Training budget

Cons

Technical teams are under the leadership of non-technical managers. If you possess strong technical skills, you might find frustration in dealing with managers proposing strange and baseless ideas. Despite the company's global presence, the teams remain isolated and resistant to embracing diversity. The majority of projects are outsourced to external firms. Given that it's a pharmaceutical company rather than an IT one, exercise caution before proceeding unless there are no other alternatives.

Roche Response

Thanks for your feedback and input. Employees receive benefits in line with what they contribute, how they contribute and the influence they have on the company and thus on clients and patients. This is based on a good relationship between employees and leaders with a focus on valuable contributions. For leaders the leadership commitments are an integral part of their contribution. Next to the achievement of their yearly goals, leaders are rated on how they live the Roche values, apply core competencies and fulfill the Leadership Commitments. We find ourselves in a rapidly changing environment and, as such, certain transformations are unavoidable so that we can continue to offer our patients the best and most innovative solutions. We are very sorry to hear that you have had a bad experience with this. It is very important to us that employees feel comfortable at Roche and that good cooperation is encouraged. Thanks again for your review, we wish you all the best for your future.
