Pros

Great Salary, Good Benefits, Very considerate of work life balance, Fully Remote Positions Available

Cons

Upper Management is unwilling to revisit decisions that have been made, resulting in top down directives that are usually better on paper than in practice. Who you work with is important and the company prefers to treat its employees as interchangeable cogs rather than human beings.

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.
