Pros

There’s no pros at Roche in Pleasanton Santa Clara and San Francisco CA offices (Maybe San Jose to) The Bay Area in General

Cons

This company is so racist! Pleasanton Santa Clara and San Francisco locations are filled with most Caucasian or Indian people. Even the people in HR are idiots and they don’t hiring many people of color. Once you work for this company you see the favorite within the business group teams. Even the hiring is ridiculous, I’ve been denied multiple times for positions I clearly qualify for and ones that I over qualified for and all they did was deny me. If you’re in the Bay Area and you want to work for Roche you have to be white or Indian or lucky. They have entry level positions on the Eastcoast USA but none on The Westcoast and if they are they’re from grad students. They really need to remodel the whole Bay Area when it comes to staff and employees. I use to really look up to this company and what they stood for until I found out all of this , Now I hate this company and wouldn’t recommend working for a racist organization.

Pros

Excellent Employee Benefits and beautiful facilities

Cons

As a seasoned quality professional I could not recommend enough that you stay far away from this company. The entire Global Quality program is run on gaslighting. Procedures are vague and cryptic and the management solution is always to just copy and paste from another site. You will be told to "speak up" and its an open and collaborative environment, but that could not be further from the truth. Roche is a toxic environment that is run by cliques that pick and choose who gets to succeed. If you dare to speak up you're targeted and ostracized. If you want to succeed there you just need to nod head in agreement and try to follow the cryptic task that is gonna set you up for failure anyway. Success is completely contingent on how well you gossip and politic. The "Branchberg Mafia" is run on emotions and direction will change day to day depending on how leadership feels that day. Again I recommend looking somewhere else if you're looking to make an impact and enjoy a challenge. If you enjoy being a sheep or like weak and emotional management. This is the place for you.
