Pros

Roche offers very good benefits. They are generous with time off and the cost of living in Indianapolis is very reasonable.

Cons

It is a very toxic environment in some areas. People are hateful and spiteful and would rather secure their power than welcome new people and new ideas

Pros

Great benefits,Good pay, nice gym, Good cafeteria. Clean offices and restrooms

Cons

Too much politics, the Fishers office is full of nepotism, politics and liars. Lots of managers are not qualified and got there only because they are connected. Roche workers are mainly Fishers people .. So racism, sexism and politics run high.

Pros

People, parking, free bananas, that's it!

Cons

The learning and development where I was based is dismal. From day one there was no training and basically it was you are on your own you work it out. Being told by your manager that you have had many sick days this year with only having 3 days off got me gob smacked especially when you do out of work hours and don't get paid any extra nor time in lieu. That was the final straw the sick days comment. Expected to be a graphic designer all though this was never in your job description, you ask for training in design packages but no that would cost money so you have no choice but to go home and you tube tutorials and they expect you to be an expert! Design packages aren't like learning a program like ms word there are alit of elements you need to learn.No career advancement opportunities being there for 9 years. I am so glad to have handed in my resignation and see the back of that place. I had one year before I hit my 10 years long service but for the sake of my sanity it wasn't worth sticking it out!
