Baxter Healthcare Employer Reviews

Make it to work around 7 am and begin processing customer complaint on medical devices that were manufactured by Baxter Healthcare. I learned about 7different types of medical infusion devices. Management was fairly ok, I like that they did not micro manage. One of the hardest parts of the job was the outrageous workload. The most enjoyable part was – more...  the compensation and the dealing with different complaints. – less

I WORKED IN VARIOUS LOCATIONS FOR BAXTER AND HAD A GREAT TIME AT ALL OF THEM. I MET WITH SOME GREAT DOCTORS AND DRUG REPS WHILE WORKING FOR BAXTER.

In my current role I assist all senior management pharmacist’s with their daily work load by ensuring all patient prescriptions are processed on time and recorded on our data base in line with legal requirements and organisation standards.
I regularly chair Team meeting’s, with my unit and other team members (from various departments) and have also – more...  been involved in projects with the Christie and Wythenshawe hospital, in order to build Baxter-Hospital relationships.
As Part of my role I am also responsible for arranging daily and weekly appointment’s (by using spread sheet) for senior management. I am also required to book appropriate transport for delivery of customer’s drugs/prescriptions.

Baxter’s are very strict on confidentiality, I’m aware of all the policy’s and different pricing issues which are not to be discussed with company’s customers. Also aware of rules and regulations and who to address if required.

My current position has allowed me to further develop my management, organisational and inter-personal skill. I have acted as Team Leader on several occasions throughout my time at Baxter’s which includes a period of 12 months covering maternity leave. The job itself is very pressurized and always having to meet deadlines. Example of this, received urgent phone call very late in the afternoon from an External Hospital requesting urgent treatment for a severely ill patient. I had to priotise my job knowing this was an urgent query and needed to be dealt with high priority. I made sure I organised transport and processed the prescription and managed to get the treatment made and delivered to the patient as promised to the customer. – less

Great environment to work. Excellent benefits, workout facilities, involved management. Co-workers are competent, great team environment.

Baxter is a stressful work environment in which you have to deal with a multitude of ambiguity. Process/Tools/Organization structure is changing constantly, and its a very difficult environment to learn while getting a grip on whats came across as new in the past few weeks.

If you can deal with the stress and constant change, you'll be compensated – more...  for it! – less

I was in Renal Peritoneal Dialysis supply delivery. I loaded 26' straight truck and delivered dialysis supplies to in-home patients suffering from kidney failure.

Typical day started at 6:00 a.m. and ended at around 5:00 p.m. — often as late as 7:00 p.m.

Hardest part of the job was working lifting boxes in the back of a hot box truck. Additionally, – more...  carrying heavy loads up steep driveways and staircases using hand-trucks was very strenuous and exhausting.

I had 2 overnight layovers a week that kept me from home.

Baxter Healthcare had excellent compensation and benefits but you earn every bit of it.

The region where I worked, my direct manager was stationed in a entirely different state! Thus, communication problems with management was standard operating procedure. – less

My typical day at work is helping are customer. Placing orders picking up supplies sending supplies out to patient or units. The hardest part of my job is when someone calls in for a family member that has passed away. Most enjoable about my job knowning that I am helping somebody stay alive.I do like my coworkers we are like one big family.

Very good place to work. A lot of advantage in traing new technlogy. Good people.

I worked in a manufacturing facility, so it was a very cool experience getting to see what the company was producing. I was also stationed in the Data Center where everyone would come with their computer issues, so as a break from coding I got to help out on all kinds of problems. I also assisted in side VBA projects where I had some down time. I would – more...  say my coworkers their were the most enjoyable part, everyone was pleasant and helpful. – less

The team work strategy established at Baxter Aibonito helps me every day to become a better person, team member, and professional, in a way that the skills as leadership are more developed compared to my previous years in here. The shared values, team work, new opportunities and constant motivation are the keys to growth every day on every aspect previously – more...  mentioned.
The opportunities like interplant projects (250 MB+), internal/external complaints investigations, new materials development/testing (GMF, ARGATROBAN, BROOKLYN, etc.) and new Kiefel machine approval are examples of the opportunities offered by Baxter and how skills can be improved every day. – less

A great place to work and a good history of teamwork. A good company that cared about their employees and took real good care of them.

I ENJOYED WORKING FOR UPS IT WAS A NICE PLACE TO WORK THE PEOPLE WERE GOOD FOLKS THAT YOU WANT TO BE AROUND EVERY DAY.

Many nationalities and languages in one company have only complicated team efforts. Constant misunderstandings.

I will never recommend anyone to work as a quality lab associate, this means that you will work for the worst manager on the planet.. Other positions within the company would be much better. Never any growth nor personal development.

Baxter as a company is very stable and financially well off. The company will be around a very long time. For a company which preaches "Lean" and focuses on improving processes, the equipment is old and run down and there are so many redundancies that the "Lean" only applies to very few processes.

I started as temporay help and was hired for my outstanding work I did for them and for being a fast learner, neat, organized. Love to work there learned very much about the business they help needy children with life threathning conditions also to needy familiies. .

The management culture is slowly changing but still, reasonable place to work.

The bottom line with Baxter is that it is very committed to it's product, customers and employees. Baxter is a top healthcare company globally.

Long hours and focus in constructing a Solid base - assignments were not in accordance to experieneces

Baxter was a great place to work the people and the management as well as the group leaders were absolutley amazing to work for and with.
