Pros

Good benefits, professional environment, nice people

Cons

I was offered a Sr IT PM role under CareFusion merger which had an end-date of Sept 2020. After 5 months of employment, they let me go, without any notice or a day of severance in Oct 2018. This seems like a trend in Oct 2017 and 2016, as their fiscal year is Oct to Sept.

Pros

Many good people at low level of the company. Brand recognition. External ethical hot line. HSA option for health insurance.

Cons

Too many top executives don't have the knowledge they need to stewart the technologies they are managing. On top of this, many of these same managers are focused on their careers rather than the technologies and people that they are managing. Ironically these should be interrealted, but at BD they are not.
