      Roche Diagnostics, North America

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Roche has great benefits, very high quality products and excellent training programs.

      Cons

      The culture changed, in my opinion, with the new CEO in North America. They used to be focused on customer first and attracting and retaining the best and most talented employees. In my experience they have become more bottom line driven, evidenced by layoffs after a phenomenal growth year. I know many top tier employees that were let go, with no effort by Roche to retain them. These layoffs also left many key customers without ideal support. In other words, what they say and what they do are two different things.

      Good benefits, poor priorities

      Senior lab technician
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Roche has wonderful benefits, and has a lot o offer. They are a global company, constantly evolving and providing ways to improve. Once you are an employee, it is hard to loose your job. Almost everyone I’ve worked with has been pleasant and helpful (with a few notable exceptions)

      Cons

      The length you are at the company is valued over your level of experience. Their disability program is extremely difficult to navigate. They lowball salaries and extremely underpay contractors, and do not easily negotiate, if at all. It is fairly easy to move positions within roche, but management is frustrating, and there is a clear hierarchy.

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Salary and benefits (not for contractors)

      Cons

      Upper management have favourites. They are not necessarily the best at their job, but if you keep quiet, toe the line, look and act appropriately, mix with the right colleagues, don’t step outside the parameters of your role and never contradict the GM, then you will be okay.
