Baxter reviews

Runs way too lean. Everyone is super stretched thin and stressed. The expectation is to work nights and weekends. Leadership knows and nobody cares. Work Life balance is non existent. "Restructuring" basically means firing a bunch of people and making others who are overwhelmed do there job. There is zero investment in R and D or the future. This makes many feel that Joe is selling the company off.

"Do more with less" is the mantra: Teams in all functions routinely understaffed and often unable to even back fill vacated roles let alone open new roles to get the team to the water line. "Best Place to Work" surveys sent by sr leadership make it seem like they care, but then any negative results are rarely acted upon and managers are pressured to have their teams reply more positive despite nothing changing. Perpetual drain of experienced team remembers, with robust subject matter expertise and history not valued. Can just outsource or bring in young talent (somehow without robust training programs) to keep the churn... "Forcing" people back to office despite it being proven unnecessary and many team members already being located around the globe. But fear to say anything because "if your job doesn't need you in the office I can outsource it anywhere for cheaper", while having the audacity to "celebrate" the flexibility they claim to have.
