      Pros

      Bayer has a great brand in the US and globally Exciting to work in pharma and healthcare Overall good compensation and benefits package

      Cons

      Bureaucracy and centralization. I left the organization following the acquisition of Schering which was more decentralized and had jobs in the US with real responsibility. Bayer is very centralized and keeps the power in Germany which leaves little room for good managers who want to be creative and make a difference. What you're left with are people who want to hide in the bureaucracy, who won't take risks and who don't want to be held accountable. If you want to be a cog in the wheel this is the place for you, but if you want to go after big goals, be held accountable and really make a difference you should look somewhere else.
