Pros

East Bay large pharma/diagnostics company affiliates with Genentech

Cons

Genentech views Roche diagnostics as nonrelevant. Roche diagnostics middle Management is a joke and more focused on micromanagement, politics, and territorial bureaucracy. This company continues to promote toxic managers who roll over dedicated employees for the sake of ‘agile’ workflows. Most middle managers are all out for themselves and will backstab you any chance they get to make themselves look better and positioning themselves for any political maneuver.

Pros

The benefits are great and the pay is better than most.

Cons

They care more about forcing efficiency measures than solving root problems. They want to enact "morale boost" events but refuse to ask why we were unhappy. This year they decided to devalue our pay and our efforts by giving everyone a static 2% raise
