Pros

Company cares about your health, safety and also demonstrates that through provided benefits / incentives.

Cons

Politics govern direction of projects, at times is counter productive and undermines the science. Science caters to marketing goals, which is good and bad. Managers tend to over stretch claims of the research for sake of making their specific group look good and boost their own careers.

Pros

To be honest: only the salary but in comparison to the bossing behavior of that manager at BBS it is too less. Bayer has an extremely toxic culture with a lot of c level managers.

Cons

Bossing, emotional pressures, useless HR, politics, head of without any kind of morality and compentences: just reading newsletters, pretend to be busy, smoking a lot, eating sweets and just discriminating all other colleagues - that was the usual day of my executive - compliance issues and a lot of more misbehaviour are included as well. But no one cares. Really no one cares.
