very good company culture and value, high caliber colleagues, various opportunities to work in other countries, competitive benefit package

with more focus on consumer care than pharmaceutical research and development, company structure and strategy changed quite big in the past year, a lot of transactions/changes happened this year, probably fewer in the coming years

Pros

Better pay than other companies My team - full of hardworking and knowledgable individuals.

Cons

Leadership/Management - can be micromanaging at times and not a lot of guidance/resources being provided. Projects can change swiftly at Bayer, and most of the times there's no background context given. Work/life balance - asked to be "flexible" with schedule for last-minute requests, then criticized for having life/responsibilities outside of work. Also, these last minute requests reflect poor planning on management. Lack of team morale - seems like it's all work and not a lot of play. Burnout culture and not a lot of incentives to perform better.
