Pros

-decent benefit, good work life balance -good training to prepare you for the job -generally great and supportive co-workers

Cons

It seemed Bayer made a huge mistake acquiring Monsanto and could not settle the Roundup lawsuits in the near future. Their stock has not been doing well lately as a result. Our yearly bonus can be cut. Hiring freeze and layoffs seemingly always loom ahead.
