Pros

If you want to gain outstanding experience with medical devices and the FDA regulation then Baxter is the place to work. Pay is good. Benefits are competitive. Perks are good. They have one of the finest travel reimbursement systems that I have used.

Cons

Be prepared for tough politics, long hours, and intense over burdening processes. The quality system is presently ultra conservative - your work will be heavily criticized. There are many more people criticizing the work than doing the work. You will be challenged to please everyone. The company is top heavy. If you plan to be in a role that delivers a regulated item then you better have tough skin.

Pros

Sometimes pay, but not worth potentially losing your job

Cons

Layoffs every few months. Too many middle management that don't have any technical skills. Will be sold off to equity firms in the next 5 to 10 years
