Pros

Salary, Bonus, Benefits, Flexibility, Quality Equipment

Cons

Roche uses Accenture as a consulting company, and Accenture consultants are generally clueless individuals who use big words to sound fancy and spark political wars at work. Roche itself has very strict hiring guidelines, but it seems Accenture will hire anyone with a degree which really lowers Roche’s quality. Roche employees are hand picked individuals with certain personality aspects and work ethics, but because of Accenture employees being all over the place, Roche employees aren’t able to focus on what truly matters. Customer satisfaction would truly be higher without Accenture having so much of a say in how customers are handled.

Pros

It is great to work the business here at Roche. The managers are great about partnering with talent teams and engaged in the process. The best part of my day is supporting their teams and efforts.

Cons

I have found that the Talent Team can at times be competitive which is good if its healthy. In the last 6 months, I have experienced 2 -3 scenarios where my colleagues used " gaslighting" to attempt cause issues for me here at Roche. I enjoy the work but believe even in today's market team work & collaboration should always come before egos and attitudes.

Pros

-Good Salary -JD for biotechnologist has been streamlined to ensure that main operations and not additional non value added work is given to biotechnologist -Good opportunities to move around if you wanted

Cons

-Horrible co-workers with lots of politics and causing a toxic work environment -Sups are oblivious to the politics in their team and act as if nothing happened. -Refuse to listen to the biotechs at all times and think that all faults are in the biotechs (blame culture) -"yes" man culture -good biotechs who can deliver work are not appreciated and seen and most of the times, given more workload than the rest of the biotechs, causing mental health distress and burnout -mental health talks are all 'talks' and no 'walks' -Horrible machinery that breaks down often and expecting the biotechs to pick up the work and rush
