Pros

The Bayer Crop Science organization is stacked with extremely intelligent employees and leaders working towards a common mission and purpose. We are a passionate organization aligned to the overall strategy, believing in "what" we do and "why" it's so important. I believe in Bayer Crop Science!

Cons

Execution is where we struggle for a variety of reasons: lack of alignment in priorities, resources and program management best practices. This results in misaligned priorities, competing resources and/or fatigue and accountability to deliver.

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.
