Pros

You are working to help people with Diabetes and that is a meaningful occupation. The location is perfect - Southern California has much better weather than MN.

Cons

Still a disconnect in professionalism of Medtronic Corporate (in MN) and Medtronic Minimed in Northridge, culture has been slow to change.

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.
