Pros

Benefits- 401k plan is great bayer puts in 9% of what you put in.

Cons

Managment is unrealistic with work load and timelines, work life balance is not great.. you are expected to stay until the work is completely finished (which is never), weekend work is common expect to cancel your plans unless you take a vacation day, no opportunities for advancement unless someone above you leaves or retires, expect to be treated differently if you dont have a family (children)..you will be the one that gets called to stay late or work weekends

Pros

Good colleagues and engineers for the most part, decent benefits and focus on safety, employee training.

Cons

Not the place if you have ambitions especially at Berkeley site. There are handful people who keep rotating in different functions and rest are stuck in same levels for decades, forget years. Few opportunities will open up here and there and they are promptly handed over to their own favorites without fit for the job by the same handful of people.
