Pros

Decent pay. No one is watching your vacation time.

Cons

This used to be such a great place, where I’d look forward to coming to work, was rewarded for my hard work. It was the land of opportunity. Not anymore. Now I don’t like coming here and even though my work ethic prevents me from doing less than my job, I just can’t stand this place or the way I get treated. All I want to do all day long is leave. I have not been rewarded in a long, long time, even though I keep thinking if I work harder, it will be recognized, like the old days. In my department, if you aren’t part of the in-crowd, you get no opportunity, the good bonuses don’t come your way, you get shoved into a corner. The guy in the corner office won’t even make eye contact. What a shame. This place used to be so great, and I miss what it was. :-(

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.
