Pros

There are the upsides that come from working for Big Pharma. Bayer has a very Good Training program - Reps are armed with skills to do the job. Bayer marketing department is very good. Reps get very good sales tools, and marketing responds to needs voiced by the field. As a rep, the benefits are standard - car, insurance, 401K. These are great. Bayer hires - most of the time - good people - peers are supportive.

Cons

Layoffs, lately, seem to come more frequently. Very sad.
