Pros

Life saving products, most employees genuinely care about the patient

Cons

Going through major culture change and don't seem to know what the culture should be anymore. Only employees that can navigate the political landscape getting ahead.

Slow and Steady Culture Not For Everyone

Pros

Consistently profitable company that serves patients and health care professionals with a variety of medical devices, services, and drugs. Compensation was at market. Expressed company values are vanilla.

Cons

Internal struggle between the BAX "lifers" who are just trying to ride it out until they hit their 85 points in the old defined benefit pension program vs. new talent brought in from other companies who want to change the culture and move at a faster pace. Lifers dislike newbies and a passive/aggressive counter-culture hinders faster evolution.

Pros

Great history within the Canadian healthcare industry (but at jeopardy).

Cons

All new management who has no idea of the industry. Change is always not a good thing.
