Pros

Nice facility. Great work by the site.

Cons

Do not join Informatics. Work environment is getting toxic after the Informatics transformation in the end of 2022, and throughout 2023. You see groups of "camps" with own cronies, and then within the camps there will be sub group of cronies. Backstabbing and bad mouth is rampant behind the scene especially by this small crony, you come across some narcistic ppl who will go all extend to badmouth own team member and others so as to gain "power" and popularity. Knowing Tamil will be an advantage as you will be able to understand the bad things and lies that are been said. Hiring and firing is based on favouritism. Most of the so-called KL leaders are fake and bias, only a few, like 4-5 out of the 20 plus are considered genuine and humble leaders.

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.
