Pros

Have loved the managers and coworkers that I have met and I have been on some major ground breaking projects that have broadened my knowledge on the agriculture space as a whole

Cons

Over the last 3 years of working for Climate/Bayer they have jumped between different development paradigms and not really taken a good chunk of time to see how it is working before abandoning it and jumping to another one.

Thank you for sharing your review on Glassdoor. We want to put customer needs, not the CEO or other leaders, at the center, and, instead of work moving up and down a layered org chart, we will put more power in the hands of those doing the work. We want to spark cross-functional teams and flow resources towards projects that focus on our mission: Health for all, Hunger for none. We believe DSO is the right direction for Bayer.

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.
