Pros

A stable company with confident pipelines. Colleagues are helpful and approachable. Positive culture

Cons

The company only offers lateral career opportunities/GIG for exposure. Staff can stay long for the same position and ranking, with stagnant career advancement. There is no compensation or job upgrade.

Roche Response

At Roche, we view career development as a journey that often involves multiple paths. Upward mobility is one path. Embracing opportunities to broaden skills and experiences across the business, or exploring new possibilities are alternative paths. Ultimately, individuals are responsible for their own career, but we provide the tools and a workplace where the job description does not define who you are. Rather, it serves as the starting point for your career journey. We’re all working to create a healthier future for everyone, and we start by remembering that when we are growing and thriving as individuals, the more we’re able to give to others. We encourage employees to take advantage of internal development opportunities, or our gigs, which are a great tool for people from diverse backgrounds to network and grow their skill sets quickly. We encourage employees to leverage conversations with their managers or leaders to discuss what might be next in their career.

Pros

The benefits are good so far just like any other company

Cons

Terrible managers Employees are getting away with traveling without using PTO when they are on EDO because they are friends with managers. This raises concerns regarding fairness, policy compliance, and equitable treatment of employees. If the manager dont like you, Your life will be hell and they will find the stupidest mistakes to kick you out. Again, some people get away of not using their pto and they will travel and claim they are working while manager is okay with it. Bunch of hypocrites
