Pros

- Once a premier Diagnostics Company. Not any longer with the infiltration of the new TD culture. - One Roche is doing the direct opposite of what it was intended by killing the morale of the workforce and weakening customer loyalty. - Heavy back door processes and procedures takes over one month to generate a pricing proposal - Marketing only manages inventory. They do not monitor competition, nor communicate strategy. Allocations and quality issues across all franchises is making the company suffer. No one is addressing issues.

Cons

- TD have taken over Roche US. Leadership does not practice what they preach about being in position too long and needing to move on. NADEC is clueless and just "yes" people .

Pros

Fairly good benefits. There are a lot of great co-workers and talented minds. Most everyone is willing to pool ideas and think outside of the box. Opportunity to learn many new processes including automated sample processing in the Bio Tech world.

Cons

Corporate takeover of Ariosa by Roche was an integration nightmare. No support from Roche for over 2 years during the "Integration Process" until suddenly the hammer came down and staff were rushed to sign off on training's that were halfass at best. The previous biotech start up culture was open and productive. When Roche took over that went away and Roche continued to cut costs at the San Jose site because of failures and bad investments at other sites. A lot of talent was lost, employee retention became a major issue. HR culture is a nightmare. They seem to have completely lost sight of what HR is supposed to do and instead run things like they are the Gestapo.
