      Pluspunten

      General pros: + Corporate benefits (subsidization of daily shuttle bus to Munich, gym on site etc.) + Family atmosphere on site + Regional base but international focus + Beautiful nature with a lot of outdoor activities offered closeby + Chances for development and career

      Minpunten

      - Bavarian collective wage: You earn approx. 400-500 EUR per month less than your colleagues in the same position in Baden-Württemberg. - Living expenses in the region Upper Bavaria is quite high - Penzberg itself is rural and unattractive, thus commuting to Munich is a good temporary option - R&D Core Lab environment: Long-term planning is not possible due to temporary contracts, extreme toxic and selfish behaviour of some colleagues, micromanagement and mis-management of some line managers, monotonous work without responsibilities and development opportunities

        The work is challenging and I enjoy my day-to-day tasks. I feel I am well paid. I genuinely like and respect my co-workers. I also enjoy assisting and interacting with customers.

        Minpunten

        Poorly defined departmental duties and individual roles. Initiatives tend to be rolled out without adequate communication between departments impacted. We seem to manage ourselves most of the time, but at a certain point this can be frustrating and at times feels like we are set up to fail.

          The high standards and expectations can create a competitive workload, which may not suit everyone.

          Thanks for your feedback and input. Our market is highly regulated. This is why we have to stick to certain processes. We are continually striving to keep our processes as lean as possible. We are sorry to hear that you feel that the company culture has changed. Of course we are a growing global multinational company, but we do value our tradition and long history of successfully working together across departments and countries very much. Our company & working culture is of immense importance to us. This is the reason why we support different activities such as focusing on collaborative working environments, diverse teams and constantly improving our collaboration between teams. We also empower the speak up of our employees. Do not hesitate to contact your local HRBP or your line manager in order to discuss your feedback in person. Thanks again for your review, we wish you all the best for your future within our company.

            Roche provides a diverse and inclusive work environment. Roche fosters a culture of collaboration and teamwork. Roche invests in emplooyee's growth through training programs, and opportunities to work on diverse projects, fostering continuous learning and skill development. Roche practices agile methodologies. The company benefits (medical aid and pension fund) are great.

            Minpunten

            In the last 2 years, there have not been as many career growth opportunities within the company as previous years. Roche has a lot of employees on contract positions. Job stability has been at risk during 2023 with a few restructurings going on within the company. The hierarchical structure can sometimes slow down decision-making processes in the company.

              Minpunten

              Roche has been a very successful company for many years, reaping the benefits of a strong Swiss work ethic. However, this constant success has led to a low sense of business acumen throughout the organization and a very powerful HR (P&C) department. Combined with a desire to follow every new trend from San Francisco and chase high ESG ratings, this has unfortunately led to an environment that is heavily influenced by woke and gender ideology. Performance, impact, and accountability are no longer values that are being recognized.

                Decent pay, good benefits. Some work/life balance and flexibility depending on where you work. R&D seems to have very flexible schedules. Site CEO (Jill) genuinely seems to care about worker wellbeing and making it a good workplace. My criticism of leadership does not apply to her.

                Minpunten

                Roche values are just catch phrases. Ultimately, many leaders don’t follow them or openly mock them. They aren’t held accountable to them. Apparently no mandatory leader training to improve their people skills. A bad leader is allowed to be a bad leader indefinitely and without accountability. Illogical spending. Blow a ton of cash on a cafeteria that didn’t need replacing and have a manufacturing space that needed expansion 5+ years ago. Nickel and diming that project now.

                  Minpunten

                  The cost of shipping back the items are not covered by the company, although they were shipped out by them. Personal development is not highly supported when it comes to IT topics (not leadership) - lack of free time for self-development. Hardware can not be chosen and the team building budget is way too low. Missing trust.

                      - Workers rights and work-life balance are important in Roche. - Once you're in, they try to keep you. If your project expires, they try to relocate you somewhere else. - Very flexible with home office and working hours. I can be working at home and, when needed, drive to the site and do whatever I need to do. - They provide all the tools needed for the best work conditions. - There's a control meeting with your team manager each week. He shall help you in anything you might need.

                      Minpunten

                      - Not much promotion expectations if you don't speak Swiss German or have a Swiss degree. - You might find some disrespectful colleagues if you didn't study in Switzerland or you're not understanding Swiss German. Not the most though. That's not Roche exclusive. - Many repeated software tools, apps and procedures that could be unified. Some of these are obsolete. - Project managers only give priorities but rarely due dates. Afterwards they come up with urgencies, specially when they gave you 3 or 4 tasks with high priority. - Project managers don't communicate clear requirements for the tasks. Be sure you deliver a very good solution because they don't appreciate iterations and shall quickly escalate to the team manager behind your back. - Almost nobody makes minutes of meeting. Be sure you make them in order to defend yourself in front of the project manager, your team manager and his manager afterwards. Thankfully, the team manager shall most probably defend you.

                        Pay is insane, benefits are solid, and opportunities for growth are probably very good. Crazy talented people at the individual contributor level.

                        Minpunten

                        Processes are overblown and operational innovation is discouraged in favor of maintaining the cumbersome status quo. If you're not a "lifer" then you "obviously don't understand how business is done here". Complex bureaucracies dominate the management landscape, more so than other companies of similar size. Corporate leaders will hand down edicts with little consideration of the impact on people and processes that are affected, as long as senior managers are satisfied. Many middle managers are zealots who spout out vision statements without living up to those values.
