Decent benefits, comparable time off for industry standard. Really good parental leave policies (12 weeks bonding for both parents plus some for birthing parents).
Cons
Lack of direction for the company, pay is not competitive. Really toxic culture. General intolerance for diversity and not an inclusive place to work.

Thank you for sharing your experience about your time at as an R&D Engineer at Baxter. We're glad you enjoyed the benefits we offer, including parental leave. However we're very saddened to read about your view on the company direction and culture which we will take note of and use to continually improve. We take comments around intolerance for diversity very seriously and will look into this further.
Great place to work. Overall truly enjoyed my time at Baxter.
Cons
None than come to mind

Pros
Was a great company 5 years ago. Declined heavily in the last 3 years. Way too many lay offs and restructuring.
Cons
Favoritism. Manager has no answers looks to someone they manage for answers. This person gatekeeps information and is overall toxic. Contradictory instructions. Managers will rely on bad information and then different managers will give you conflicting orders. If you try to go to the upper managers they will terminate you and lie about it. You could be asked to solve problems you were not hired for.
