Pros

Vacation time, benefits, cafeteria food, lots of TVs so easy to keep up with the news, clean bathrooms, good EHS staff

Cons

Upper managers only concerned with what will make themselves look good at any cost. Painfully obvious favoritism and cronyism. No regard for personal with certain types disabilities. Pay raises below cost of leaving increase. No work home life balance.

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.
