Antonym of Nimble
Pros
Extremely valuable and rewarding work to improve the health and lives of HCPs and patients while earning excellent pay and benefits.
Cons
From the time of Covidien acquisition to May 2021, and amidst the confusion of flailing and drowning in a seeming infinitely layered and chaotic bureaucracy, progress was almost impossible, agility just out of reach and innovation nothing more than a lovely ideal. As Martha confirms, the growth was not commensurate with our position as a leader in the market. QOL outside of Medtronic was greatly diminished by insanely demanding traveling pace and hefty responsibilities. Work-life balance was not possible in the mastery of this role, despite the lip service continually given to the topic. The real culture was: if your personal life did not allow you to devote ALL of your time and effort to MDT and the myriad projects you were involved with simultaneously, there were negative consequences.
