Good Benefits, Poor Leadership

Senior energy engineer

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Site has great benefits, Was able to start with 5 weeks of combined PTO/Sick Days. Good flexible schedule.

Cons

Not sure where the company is going. Had to see an entire department released of duty without warning during a restructuring. Leadership is poor in communicating and corporate is structured in silos.

Pros

Pay and benefits are competitive

Cons

You are just a number at Baxter. Expected to run like a robot. No work/life balance AT ALL. Very inconsistent with policies. What is allowed for one person is not allowed for another. Very toxic place to work and sucks the life right out of you.
