Bullying Culture, Institutional Nepotism and Disturbingly Poor Diversity-Inlcusion

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Brand, Pension, you work on products that save live. Exciting work. Above average pay

Cons

Organizational bullying, unethical behavior,under resourcing leading to a blame-game culture. Poor diversity. Leadership is attempting to improve diversity but there is no real progress and so it creates an impression that they don't take it seriously and are just pandering. Inclusion criteria is even worse than the low diversity numbers. Internal jobs/promotion are distributed in a manner that resembles nepotism/favoritism rather than by performance

Product engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Delivering products that make a difference in people's lives. Being able to make a difference in lives affected by medical problems.

Cons

1. Poor management choices and business management. 2. Good ole boys club where the ones doing the work don't get the promotions or the proper recognition. 3. Tempe campus leaning itself to a point where it will be shipped overseas within 3-5 years. 4.
