Pros

High standard level international pharmaceutical company which was activated in Iran (in pharma) by buying Schering AG in 2005-2006. I was there for 10 years, starting as fresh medical representative and left as BUM. I surved lots of usefull training courses there.

Cons

Less flexibility than other companies, specially in Iran. In fast moving markets like Iran, Bayer is too slow. Big changes happened in last couple of years in global level ended in some negative results in countries like Iran.

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.
