Pros

Great working environment with great professionals and great people. Global company focused externally on the customer, and internally on improving engagement and building the right culture. Formidable mission of Health for all and Hunger for None!

Cons

Company in transition for the past four years since Bayer bought Monsanto. Still struggling to build the culture leadership aspires. Ag Business is struggling. New CEO and CHRO are implementing a new and revolutionary reorganization. Very unstable times. Organization is very nervous and losing great talent, left and right.

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.
