Pros

Good family friendly company to work for overall. Good Benefits and flexible working with some home working

Cons

Abissmal local leadership in the SE England, UK site resulting in very high staff turnover with people treating the place as their personal business rather than a corporate environment.

Pros

- Good work/life balance - It's impossible to get fired if you're a full-time employee - Great scientists

Cons

- TERRIBLE management, especially in business leaders - While there are smart people in the software org in Belmont, everywhere else has pretty terrible talent in terms of tech - Terrible innovation, lots of no, everyone is afraid to change anything - Outdated technology and systems - Cheap with employees - Not very smart people in business, which is why diagnostics is treated 2nd class to pharma - Recruiting outside Belmont is awful - SO much bureaucracy it's absolutely frustrating - Tons of promotions, no development; they happily keep low performing employees - If you disagree with the status quo you're outcasted, berated, told you aren't "One Roche" just because you have a different opinion - Terrible, I mean terrible, culture - HR is absolutely clueless in terms of people development, career growth... especially HR leadership
