Pros

acceptable salary package if you only look for money

Cons

over aim unrealistic objective, highly not recommended if you're searching for a stable career at this company as a medical rep. If you think you're a very aggressive person then go ahead and good luck dude!

Pros

For the most part, Bayer has the lowest "jerk ratio" of any company I have worked with. My colleagues are generally lovely.

Cons

I was excited that they really seemed to be trying to embrace a culture of Diversity & Inclusion...and then with great fanfare they announced the successful candidates for 14 new leadership roles- 12 were men, and most were white. Also, if you are not German or at least based in Germany, forget about trying to advance in global roles. The Monsanto acquisition was a debacle.

Business Outlook

Pros

Pay was great to start, some of the coworkers were great to work with

Cons

Raises get smaller and smaller as you go on, unless you're a man. The team was changed to seasonal after two years of being full time so benefits get cut off every winter and then we reapply for our jobs come spring. The new management of the team seems ill-equipped after not being trained by previous management or higher ups on how this team operates. Feels very much like a sinking ship.
