Pros

- The company has a great mission statement, and they do a great job of bringing things back to the paitents. - Some of the people here are really great to work with. - Some benefits perks like discounts and local museum admissions.

Cons

- The compensation is not competitive compared to other med device companies. - A lot of disfunction here and instead of improving things people say "well that's just Baxter". - A lot of things here are weighed down with bureaucracy that can be hard to navigate. - Expected to handle a large workload, most people here are working over 40 hours a week. - You are expected to be at the office at least 3 days a week, even if you have no in person meetings. They promote flexibility but really depends on what team you are on.
