Pros

Edwards had a Long Term CEO leader that was trusted and steered the organization through growth - that CEO has since retired and the trust in leadership has diminished. Great mission.

Cons

Recent turnover of several long term senior leaders reflects the decline in the health of the organization. Current executive leadership does not have the pulse on the organization and employees anymore. Culture has changed to a very political nature. Just completed a massive 500+ layoff as well as smaller layoffs within the organization continue. Approximately 45% of current Edwards employees with profiles on LinkedIn indicate they are open for work. Very political organization with massive favoritism in play. It seems like strategy has changed from growing/innovating medical technology to acquiring smaller organizations...likely to keep from being acquired themselves.
