Pros

Hybrid role with flexible work hours, ability to manage own schedule.

Cons

Huge workload, lengthy approvals processes make it difficult to be efficient at the job and get things done in a timely manner. Unsupportive management as everyone is just looking out for themselves. Onboarding experience was unorganised and training process was not thorough.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts! Your feedback helps. We’re pleased with the progress we’ve made and are proud of our culture, but this is an ongoing, living process. We recognize there will always be room for improvement, because when you’re not afraid to fail, you push yourself further. Our culture is an essential element that allows our organization to succeed globally, and we want our employees to feel inspired and engaged to do their best work. We want you to be empowered and to have the autonomy and freedom to influence, lead and inform from any position. We constantly strive to create an environment that prioritizes a range of diverse perspectives, creating the conditions where community, connection, and collaboration can thrive, and where you can come as the person you are. This is absolutely essential to the work we do and allows us to bring medicines and diagnostic solutions more quickly to the patients who are counting on us. We understand that the often-conflicting demands of work and personal life can be a major source of stress. The key to creating work-life balance is to set expectations that are reasonable for you. For many of us, the harmony between our work and life outside of work is dynamic, with some days and weeks when we are in better harmony and other times when things are not where we want them to be. We would encourage you to discuss your concerns with your local manager or HRBP in order to come up with a plan that helps you better balance both your work and outside-of-work life.

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.
