Pros

In the first year you are there is excellent you are given time to adapt. Very competitive on your salary normal 10% to 20% lower then the market. They (top management) say if you have the desire to help people take the cut. Although it isn't a charity as the profits show. Development is left to you and if your department has budget to develop you but most likely there is no budget .. we are told to say.

Cons

In my 10 years plus I have seen reorganizations to cut peoples jobs, no empathy for any worker and if you are over 50 your are out, "Business decision". Nobody retires in the company and few make it to over 50 ... Roche has good value like VW, but they bury them at their convenience. Your ideas are welcomed but keep them to yourself. Only upper management has ideas.
