Pros

Great benefits and pay. The people in most areas are good to work with and for the most part everyone gets along.

Cons

Upper-management doesn't listen to the people who actually do the work. The work load is way too much and work hours are continually changing. They have an open-door policy but won't listen to you (if you can catch them). Work life balance is next to none (unless you are upper-management.)

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.
