Pros

It was a wild ride, but the company cared, paid well and gave me more opportunities than I could have hoped for. I miss it - but the writing was on the wall with my area and Bayer. After being away for 2 years, I know there will never be another company that was so impactful.

Cons

Can't speak for Bayer, but it could be a bit much with favoritism and politics. Some of the tactics around people mgmt./development was childish. "If you were in a boat, who would you pick to be with you...." Haha.
