Beware this isn't worth it

Business Outlook

Pros

Good compensation, benefits. Company has a nice reputation.

Cons

Atmosphere of fear and intimidation. Blame and fault finding is primary objective of completely uninvolved management team. Sad part is that HR actively participates in this dysfunction, even actively works to promote this atmosphere. Gotcha!! This was literally the worst employment experience of my life.

Business Outlook

Pros

- if it aligns with your values, mission can be inspiring - Great company to retire - things move slow, but generally safe place to work

Cons

- Medtronic is brutal at enforcing their culture - Generally most benefits are designed for VP levels and above - Extremely frugal especially towards lower and middle level management employees - Too many levels and hierarchies and too big for employees to be noticed - Newer offices have workspaces that are open and extremely basic. Offices do not have enough meeting rooms or areas for private conversations. - Whether you are Executive assistant or Director - all get same basic work space and general benefits
