Pros

There are some really great people. My immediate team was great and many of the Regional Managers were high quality people. Some great products.

Cons

The rest of the U.S. Leadership seem to be clueless of what is going on. They seem confused. They lack direction and strong leadership. They ignore many of the basic business principles that make great companies great. Their communication to the field sales force was horrible. Never felt they could be trusted. Two layoffs. So many bad decisions.

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.
