Pros

Bayer is a global company with excellent brand name recognition and reputation. Average retirement package and disconnected leadership.

Cons

Bayer aspirin is an excellent product with instant brand name recognition but the company has to many internal silos that forget how to apply the quality associated with on product to other business unit products. Each business unit is starving for resources to maximize a competitive product position. German rigidity and slow to innovative with newer technologies to connect customers with the firm. If a suit could describe this organizations leadership attention to detail it would be considered 7 years behind current industry leaders.

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.
