Pros

Other pee-ons to enjoy your misery with.

Cons

Occurrence system for missed punches is not practical. (Ex: gain points towards a write-up because a colleague needs something, and you get dragged back to work before you can finish your lunch period). I’ve worked through a lot of unpaid lunches. Kiss your summer vacations good-bye. Expect to work 6 days a week most of the spring, summer, fall.

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.
