Pros

Excellent people, hard-working and committed to the idea that we are here to help patients. Pay ok and benefits are excellent. We have become "BIG pharma" and all that is bad and associated with that.

Cons

Global integration is painful.........very tough now that decisions are made by Roche

Pros

The work is meaningful and overall the company vision aligns with my goals

Cons

QA management has become inept. None of the leadership (aside from maybe one or two) truly understand the nuances of our site and jobs. They refuse to pay you more due to "budget" reasons but won't provide much information, they claim to be transparent but will make decisions behind your back and not communicate them, even if they impact you and/or your job. Leadership doesn't listen to feedback and gets defensive if you even try to give any. It honestly has become a game of politics only in QA and that's not really building any real quality culture.
