Baxter – “Employees- Be Aware who you work for!”

Pros

I had a good experience working in the HR department at Baxter and I might even go back to work in HR if I get an opportunity. The best reason to work for baxter is- it is an established company in a growing field.

Cons

Not all managers care to sent the right tone and expectations. I had previously worked at Baxter in Round Lake and it was a bad experience. I was hired to work in Drug Delivery and when I went in to report to work on the first day, the manager called the security and had me escorte to work in the Penicilin fill room. This company has a difficult time keeping people working for them as they are not upfront & treuthful with their employees. I have seen employees walk out of there, not to return after working for half a day. One of the worst departments to work in at Baxter is its Credit and Collections department. My boss was the worst that I could have ever had.

Advice to Senior Management

Managers, should try to treat their employees in a fair and decent manner and understand that the hourly employees are also human beings and need to be treated with some amout of consideration. Remember that just because an employee is a temporary employee does not mean that they are any less human.

After all said and done, I will say that my manager in the HR department, where I worked breiefly worked was a very nice person, a great manager and very professional. I will go back to work for him in a heartbeat.
