Pros

Good work life balance Good pay Good facilities Peace of mind while working No micro management Activities other than work are good Job Security. It is a very employee centric company I feel

Cons

Leads / Managers tech stack is old school While working on latest tech stack, sometimes it is difficult to convey the exact technical hurdles due to such limitations of leads. But, they still do consider. Fewer people than needed (could be project specific) Promotions are hard to come. Increments are low once joined. Increments and bonus are based on company and product performance.

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.
