Good money but ...

Blend operator/blender

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good money, annual raises, good medical, dental insurance with eye coverage optional. Hardly ever have a lay off. Finished goods area is clean and sterile. You are making life saving equipment.

Cons

Upper management has gone down hill over the years. Many people dislike it at Baxter. Over the last few years they have cut back on employees and doubled the workload on the rest. On the blend/palletizing area it is hot and dirty and pretty fast paced.

Great Team, Lack of Leadership

Senior manager indirect procurement

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Immediate team was dedicated and wonderful to work with

Cons

Leadership was disorganized and competitive with each other causing serious lack of trust and communication. This was Hillrom (prior to Baxter) and I understand most of those leaders are no longer there.
