      Great company to work for

      Pros

      I’ve been at Roche three or four months now and I’ve never been around such a mature organization. For the most part, everyone treats each other calmly and with respect and there is great collaboration between teams. The offices that I have been to inspire collaboration between teams but also the opportunity to work in ways that work best for you (individual meeting rooms, couches, etc)

      Cons

      So far a lot of travel and it takes a long long time to get anything done at Roche. Tools and software are not necessarily being used as intended which leads to hang ups and lower productivity.

      Roche is wonderful company but the culture and work environment have suffered in recent years.

      Pros

      Highly skilled people, empathetic culture, lots of opportunities, collaborative, great benefits and work-life balance.

      Cons

      Constant restructuring and transformation leading to low morale, confusion, and a sense that the senior management care only about themselves and shareholders. Roche should return to the time where it looked after its employees. I fear that the decline in the company’s treatment of employees will weaken its culture, resulting in an exodus of talent to competitors and smaller biotech. The result could be a corresponding decline in financial performance and innovation.
