      Pros

      Many opportunities on careers, large portfolio of interesting drugs. Multi-cultural environment in particular in HQ Europe. Willingness to take care of employees. Promotion of values and not only of money.

      Cons

      Unstable senior management. Opportunities very much concentrated in San Francisco. Quality of life of many employees severely impacted following merge with Genentech and Operational Excellence initiative. People much more afraid to speak out. Employees are more encouraged to say what management want to hear independantly of the mid-long term consequences for the company.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      satisfaction of bringing a new product to market getting recognized for contributions to the company, It is a good community of scientists and support personnel

      Cons

      departments are disconnected from each other Each department is possessive of "their" space, and their work is more important. There is also a lack of communication between department directors down to the working scientists and technicians. directors will design an expansion space without consulting the techs who will be working there.

      Pros

      Ethical company that brings meaningful drug products into the market. The employees are dedicated and loyal to the company as can be seen with the number of employees with over 25 years of service.

      Cons

      Has recently gone through many changes after the Roche-Genetech integration creating an unstable environment.
