Pros

Amazing product that saves lives, a big successful company that is an industry leader

Cons

I will start by clarifying my review is strictly for the Neurovascular division based in Irvine, CA. Medtronic is an industry leader in medical devices, which I feel is not fair if I did not distinguish between corporate Medtronic with the acquisition of the legacy business that became present day Neurovascular division. Neurovascular division is suffering under incompetent management. The incompetent management is responsible for the alarming high turn over rate of employees at this site. They do not care about morale nor work life balance of employees. I've also witnessed one of the most extreme cases of nepotism at this site.

Pros

There are many non-traditional benefits that help with work life balance. The company’s brand and global reach are undeniable and reinforce the company’s compelling Mission.

Cons

People are expected to deliver above-average results with below-average processes. The stock’s performance has earned this pressure, but there is no obvious, quick path to improvement. Your experience in that corporate environment will depend on your supervisor either being a leader or a manager.
