Pluspunten

Laid back work-life balance, salary is adequate, hybrid work could be extended to almost being a remote.

Minpunten

- Career growth is close to non-existing - with "DSO" changes, most of the middle managers were laid off, so it's almost impossible to get a promotion. Also, there's no clear career path - everyone will tell you "yeah, you need to be proactive, participate in different initiatives yadda yadda yadda", but it would not guarantee anything. - Not an IT company: the engineering culture is OKish, but depends on the team you'll join. Plus, don't expect extremely interesting/challenging tasks. - Prepare to be torn between US and Warsaw offices. You'll have different managers (with their own interests) and team-members from both locations, which results in blurred vision of your own priorities.

Pluspunten

Better pay than other companies My team - full of hardworking and knowledgable individuals.

Minpunten

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.
