Pros

There is no reason to work at Bayer Healthcare except for a steady income and benefits. Health benefits is also not that great.

Cons

The management at Bayer Healthcare is not transparent with their decision for the company. They decided to shutdown the site from the beginning at day 1 when they take over the manufacture from Novartis, but they kept it a secret until recently.

Pros

Better pay than other companies My team - full of hardworking and knowledgable individuals.

Cons

Leadership/Management - can be micromanaging at times and not a lot of guidance/resources being provided. Projects can change swiftly at Bayer, and most of the times there's no background context given. Work/life balance - asked to be "flexible" with schedule for last-minute requests, then criticized for having life/responsibilities outside of work. Also, these last minute requests reflect poor planning on management. Lack of team morale - seems like it's all work and not a lot of play. Burnout culture and not a lot of incentives to perform better.
