DO NOT see something, do something!

Pros

- Saving lives - Loved what I did - Salary

Cons

SLT could care less about their employees. They can smooth talk but everyone is disposable. Numerous HR on site but don't waster your time because for the one or 2 that aren't corrupt they lay low to keep a job. No morals exist at Baxter anymore. They knew they were going to have to let a large part of the workforce go at the end of last year, made people sign NDA's even, and then blindsided their employees with termination. Not to mention NEVER file an ethics and compliance report or escalate concerns. No matter what they tell you retaliation will come! I-Care is their slogan but you honestly can't care anymore because if you do it will tear you up inside to see all the wrong doing, procedures broken and blind eyes turned. Good luck to those that remain.

Poor Transparency, Weak HR, and Misguided Consultant Decisions

Administrative assistant

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great local teams to work together

Cons

Leadership had potential but was hindered by a lack of transparency and poor communication. The HR department was ineffective in addressing employee needs, and too many key business decisions were outsourced to consultants unfamiliar with the company’s day-to-day operations. This led to “synergy” initiatives that missed the mark and overlooked real operational needs.
