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

Great salesforce. Educated, motivated people who want to work with passion.

Cons

Senior management consists of idiots who don't know how to run a business. They took over Berlex Laboratories and drove it into the ground. A lot of nimrod managers, especially in NY! Product pipeline is a bust. Current products are going downhill. Company just underwent a huge down-sizing, and is considering another one soon!

Fair place to work, limited career mobility

Pros

The colleagues at BCC are caring, kind and generous. A great group of people working for the organization; most colleagues are a joy to work with. A high level of interest in volunteering and mentoring across the organization.

Cons

Upward mobility is challenging, unless in marketing. Crossover to other functional areas is difficult, if not impossible. Some employees suffer from apathy, which can impact day-to-day responsibilities. Management involvement is haphazardly applied. On-site HR is unclear.
