      Pros

      good pay, you can work your way up if you understand the politics, depending on the team or department you can have a great or bad work experience

      Cons

      lots of politics and bureaucracy, they do a lot of idea contests but never give feedback about them (or it takes forever), coming from the old Schering organization I found some of the original Bayer people somewhat arrogant, health care comes with some ethical issues that you need to be comfortable with, however Bayer's cropscience units and material science units are way worse - do you want to work for a company like that?

      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.
