Pros

Salaries and benefits. Solid company

Cons

A lot of rules and policies are written in the headquarters for the other countries to follow, The policies and practices that are established in the headquarters are beautifully written in paper but not followed by the ones who define them. People management and professional growth will depend if you have a friend somewhere in the company in top 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.
