Pros

I liked getting Bayer products at the site store for super cheap. Company ran very well and was organized. Adequate staffing.

Cons

Benefits were not too great. Compensation was low. Had to leave to get a decent raise. I'm sure there's others.

Pros

Many groups are able to work remotely from home several days a week. There is a good life-work balance from what I can see. Good exposure to senior leadership on a monthly basis.

Cons

It is difficult to make connections outside of your department which leads to a feeling of stagnation. Managers have the power to put a stop to any promotion growth by citing anything they want on a performance review.
