Good strategy, subpar implementation

Pros

Has fantastic pay and benefits package Great (former) colleagues

Cons

Roche is in the midst of many multiple transformations. Support functions like IT, HR (Now P&C), Finance going through Lean transformation, Agile transformation, and others. However, to move things quickly, they have combined a few transformations: eg Agile transformation with cost-cutting measures, with many laughable (in a sad way) results. This has resulted in many experienced staff leaving.
