Baxter Manager reviews

executive leadership is clueless and the company is financially unstable

My advice is not to work for Baxter. Or it has to be in supporting functions such as Regulatory Affairs, Business Development, etc. These jobs are often located in Deerfield, IL. If you work in jobs where the actual work happens, such as Manufacturing or R&D, you will work relatively hard with minimal to no recognition. Opportunities for growth are limited in these functions. If things go wrong, fingers will be pointed. If things go right, then it is thanks to the supporting functions. Baxter’s latest announcement is that levels below director can no longer fly business for travel overseas. The story is that many companies have a similar policy. True, but other companies have much better management. I recently traveled for work. Directors and above were constantly in and out of meetings for “urgent” matters. Only later it became apparent that one of the director urgent phone calls had all to do with his private rental home business. This might seem anecdotal but exemplifies the mentality within Baxter. Top loaded with redundant senior management.
