Cons
I've been continually overworked with insurmountable tasks for years. Expectations of employees are incredibly imbalanced. Some are worked into the ground with no recognition while others are celebrated and awarded for simple tasks. Begging for more manpower or funding for tools that could make tasks more efficient is futile. Meanwhile, responsibilities continually grow in an unrelenting fashion. Low and mid-level managers are absolutely frightened of German leadership. Genuine concerns are considered 'rocking the boat'. Raising concerns is not worth the effort. Managers often avoid taking employee concerns, ideas, and suggestions to upper management. The company claims an open door policy while my department is run by chain of command due to former law enforcement and military mindsets in the department. HR looks the other way often. I've asked for HR involvement during a heated discussion with a manager and the request was ignored. I've asked for escalation or HR involvement in an issue with a coworker and that request was ignored. What used to be a passion is now just job. I search NextDoor almost every night looking for new opportunities. I no longer recommend working for Bayer.
