Pros

Senior management showed a ton of respect to employees when announcing site closure 2 years in advance. Also very helpful in finding employment at other Bayer sites. Unfortunately other site doesn't come close to the supportive, compliant driven culture of Emeryville.

Cons

Was not easy enough to fire non-performers. Sometimes decisions were not based enough on scientific evidence which prohibited effective change management.
