Overworked, underpaid

Pros

Employees are, for the most part, kind and easy to work with (though there are a few glaring exceptions!). Head of R&D is intelligent and has sound policies.

Cons

Crap salaries, unless you're Baxter legacy in which case you're making bank. Tiny cost of living raises, not in line with increased skills or quality of work performed. Former Baxter workers are generally lazy, relying on job security and newer employees to do the bulk of the work. Expect a minimum 50 hour work week, making you even more underpaid. Upper management severely out of touch with an R&D environment. Inane policies. Spending way too much money in hideous new open-office cubicles.

Beware of Management Covering their own Backs

Pros

I loved Fresenius at first. Great and friendly environment, great team I was working on, product line was great, the culture of the overall company and senior management I found wonderful.

Cons

Management in my area had bully mentality. I personally observed one employee being personally tussled by a manager. I went to human resources (as I was new to the company) and told to mind my own business. I am sorry, but no matter what the issue, the management should never put hands on employees (especially as the employee came nowhere near that type of behaviour and had a valid question to ask the manager. Having heard the argument, the manager was wrong and I showed HR the FDA Regulations showing where she was wrong. I soon have that manager on my back for "butting in". All I did was simply point out the pertinent answer. I did not do so out of disrespect but because as someone in quality and compliance that is my role.

Poor management

Pros

You will learn a lot on your own.

Cons

Poor management, miscommunication, lack of leadership, no accountability, and no one knows what they are actually doing throughout the whole site. Everyone is just hiring their friends so there is actual growth from within the site.
