Pros

It is a good company for the most part, great people, and good benefits. I like the fact that they are very open to the work/life balance.

Cons

They hire outside rather than promote within. They don't give you raises or bonuses when they are deserved. The yearly raises suck. They keep untalented employees and keep the talent at the bottom where they build resentment and quit.

Pros

Better pay than other companies My team - full of hardworking and knowledgable individuals.

Cons

Leadership/Management - can be micromanaging at times and not a lot of guidance/resources being provided. Projects can change swiftly at Bayer, and most of the times there's no background context given. Work/life balance - asked to be "flexible" with schedule for last-minute requests, then criticized for having life/responsibilities outside of work. Also, these last minute requests reflect poor planning on management. Lack of team morale - seems like it's all work and not a lot of play. Burnout culture and not a lot of incentives to perform better.
