Great Company but too Much Focus on Shareholder Value vs. Putting Patients First

Business Outlook

Pros

- Great opportunity to expand and stabilize a new production line for the RST OU - Well defined mission and vision - Get to work with talented people from all over the world - Great company culture

Cons

- Role and RAIC was undefined at times - I work remotely so I don’t have as many personal relationships with my coworkers as I would in office - Management and company reorganization occurred on average every 6 months - This is a large organization, so it is difficult to advance or make an impact - Very business driven and constantly looking for ways to cut costs including layoffs and travel restrictions

Pros

Hard to find any aside from reputation.

Cons

They offered a new insurance plan, Surest, which is a low tier UHC plan, and told us to be grateful. They wont adapt to retain talent. There is a 'in group' culture, where if you're not in the in group might as well give up. Growth in the company is slow and not worth the time. The pay is lower than average but VP/CEO Que and HR VP Karen tell us that its great and that we should stick together despite losing out on pay should you work elsewhere. They will hold WFH possibility in front of you like a carrot on a stick. They offer things (eg work anywhere for a month) that may or may not be applicable to your team. They claim good PTO hours, but take credit for CA laws that require certain amount of PTO given. C-suite has poor for sight, and has yet to tell the assembly line workers that once auto-line is up they will be laid off.
