Pros

a larger company with more area to move when your not satisfied with your Position

Cons

Management does not like you to move up the ladder wants you to stay where your at - The reduction of individual thinking more like a "Lemming Factor" to stay in line, do what the everyone else is doing this is the new thinking at Baxter.

Pros

Baxter is huge company. If you're in the Medical Device industry, this is one of the best places to work for. Great working atmosphere, good team-spirit, work-life balance and lots of opportunities to enhance your career. Individual rewards and credits provide employee boost to perform better. Frequent team outings, cub game passes and luncheon coupons make it a very attractive place to work for.

Cons

Baxter pays low salaries to its employees below the management level. Most of the credit is taken away by the managers except your manager exceptionally generous. Getting up the ladder could get tough depending your manager. Lot of competition. Have to be really good.

Pros

The good thing about Baxter is that it's a multi-national company, where you may get career opportunities. The good working environment helps employees have an urge to work and produce. Also, the good health insurance package and stock purchase plan is a pro for Baxter. Finally, the good working hours are rare nowadays, so it's an advantage for Baxter employees.

Cons

The very low salaries of employees in contrast with the Managers' earnings creates a bad atmosphere of unfairness. Low-paid employees get no recognition, while their supervisors get all the credit for their work. Also, the unfair promotions to people who don't really work or deserve it makes employees unwilling to try harder.
