Pros

BD University was a wonderful learning experience and offered tools that I use every day in business. The overall effect made BD a highly professional environment and a relatively pleasant place to work. At BD there was a true commitment to work/life balance, especially to young families and people with disabilities. While working there one felt they were making an improvement to someone's daily life.

Cons

Too much politics and old school network when seeking opportunities and/or advancement. Individulists were isolated and excluded from opportunities, both professionally and socially. The wages were quite low for the region and were only partially offset by the benefits provided. An in-depth analysis of the cost-of-employment should be done before accepting any offers.
