Layoffs without warning

Anonymous employee

Pros

Decent salary, subpar health benefits, my team and bosses were awesome, and severance package when corporate randomly decides to lay you off, uprooting your life was also decent.

Cons

Corporation does not care about you. Will lay an employee off without warning, without good reason, and without informing the managers that worked closest with their team. HR waves their mighty hand and employees vanish… poof… you could think you’re safe and your managers think you’re safe but you never know when they’ll strike and force cuts even when your department is exceeding all sales goals. They reward excellent performance with lay offs and then force management to read from scripts to terminate you while someone from HR watches to make sure they don’t deviate from the script. The worker and the supervisor may be in tears. Corporate doesn’t care. If you like to gamble your financial stability and job security, get a job at BD.

Pros

Industry average pay, great people (in some areas), stable employment.

Cons

Stifling bureaucracy, upper management doesn't seem to have a clear plan for the future and is focused on short-term goals unlikely to yield sizable long-term returns.
