Pros

The pay is pretty good. The benefits and vacation time are better than the pay. You can move up pretty quickly if you're a good worker. Although, once you get closer to upper management you also have to shake the right hands and say the right things.

Cons

BD is a giant corporation only worried about the bottom line. They are very concerned about their ESG score and hire and promote accordingly, unfortunately to the detriment of the company and employees. Until you get to a job group 4 the bonuses are pretty weak. Morale is mostly pretty low. The higher ups are disconnected from the rest of the worker bees. It seems like they implement procedures and strategies with little input from those actually doing the work, creating inefficiencies and red tape. After seeing some great folks work hard to move up only to be first on the chopping block for layoffs is very demoralizing.

Pros

There really aren't any. Incredibly toxic culture all the way down. BD used to be a great and supportive place to work but that is no more.

Cons

Very toxic culture. Management all the way down is either abusive or or flat out incompetent. We are told to essentially ignore our own code of conduct policies and ethics to the point where all qualified and competent performers have been run off by tyrant middle managers who can essentially do whatever they want or being saddled with the work of 3 people. You will not be valued here. The morale is at bottom and everyone is looking to leave the sinking ship.
