Baxter reviews

Upon reading other reviews of various Baxter sites, I see that the culture which existed at my division is the norm rather than an exception. So I will summarize what I agree with. The company is in a constant state of change leading to feelings of instability among employees. Management is not honest about potential raises or promotions. They hire at the lowest wage that "the local market can bear". This lead to an unqualified workforce impossible to train. So the trainers were constantly reprimanded when employees could not perform their assigned duties. There was a very high turnover. This also leads to an unskilled and unqualified workforce. All of this makes one draw the conclusion that Baxter does not care about customers and patients at all or they would address these problems. All they seemed to care about is cutting costs and improving the bottom line for their stockholders. The future I see based on their business ethics is that the company will rot from the inside.

Given the company split most people are scared they will be laid off. Also, it's hard to move up and yearly raises are a joke. Make sure you get a good deal when you initially start because not much will change after that.
