Toxic Workplace

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

The team, the doctors, the iTero commission, the innovation. It is the best aligner company out there. Training program is amazing as well, you will grow so much here. Base pay is decent but where you really make the money is when you exceed iTero quota.

Cons

Poor upper management that bleeds toxicity to the middle management and therefore TM’s suffer it the most. High iTero quotas qtr after qtr, which by the way - that’s your main job even though you thought you were signing up to be an Invisalign GP rep and you think there is a separate iTero counterpart. TM’s have to balance constant learning of new growth programs, pushing iTero sales onto doctors, and also maintaining chummy status with colleagues and regional managers in order to be favored and moved onto senior roles.

Toxic Work Environment Leading to Burnout

Anonymous employee

CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Pros: Competitive salary Some talented and hard-working colleagues Exposure to a fast-paced, cutting-edge tech environment

Cons

Toxic Leadership: Management prioritizes unrealistic deadlines over employee well-being. There’s zero empathy or understanding from upper management when it comes to workloads or personal challenges. Feedback is ignored, and there is little to no recognition for hard work. Unmanageable Workload: Expect to work long hours, nights, and weekends with no work-life balance. The company constantly pushes employees to the brink, with impossible expectations and no additional support. The idea of "taking time off" is frowned upon, and you're expected to be available 24/7. Lack of Career Development: No real opportunity for growth or mentorship. Promotions are given based on favoritism rather than performance or merit. Upper management seems more interested in saving face than investing in employee development or training. Burnout Culture: The environment is extremely stressful, and burnout is the norm. There is no effort to address this—employees are just seen as replaceable cogs. High turnover is common, and mental health is widely ignored. Poor Communication: Constant mismanagement of projects due to poor communication between departments and leadership. Changes are made last minute with no regard for the impact on the team, leading to chaos and missed deadlines.
