Pros

Roche has wonderful benefits, and has a lot o offer. They are a global company, constantly evolving and providing ways to improve. Once you are an employee, it is hard to loose your job. Almost everyone I’ve worked with has been pleasant and helpful (with a few notable exceptions)

Cons

The length you are at the company is valued over your level of experience. Their disability program is extremely difficult to navigate. They lowball salaries and extremely underpay contractors, and do not easily negotiate, if at all. It is fairly easy to move positions within roche, but management is frustrating, and there is a clear hierarchy.

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
