Pros

Bayer is the best company I have worked for. A company where I really enjoyed my tenure & learnt a lot. I was fortunate to have worked with best human beings from 2007 - 2011.

Cons

The company at present has the worst IT management I have ever experienced in my life. the management is completely biased with a complete blind eye towards the performers. It is due to this management & its policies that the best brains are no longer associated with IT Dept. of Bayer CropScience Ltd., India. The Current IT management has also done a lot of work which need through scanning from compliance view.

Pros

Great benefits. For non rank & file there is flexben, HMO coverage for all your dependents, cash allowances for medicine, optical, dental, clothing and meals. I also got to travel during annual conferences and summer outings,

Cons

Very political management. They don't recognize people with potential. If you want to move up or try another role, they don't even consider or talk to you about it. And their HR people are so unethical, no integrity. I tried applying for a supervisor position after I was in the company for more than 2 years. The interviewer told me she was just interviewing me for formality's sake but I was not really being considered for the position because I wasnt an engineer... even though I've already held the role unofficially for several months because of a vacancy. Then I know of one HR officer who was responsible for rumor mongering. It was so very traumatic.
