AVOID THIS COMPANY AT ALL COSTS. Fake positive reviews are lying!

Anonymous employee

Pros

Most people I work with are awesome.

Cons

Fake recent reviews claiming the company allows WFH. This is false, the company is requiring all employees be in office 4 days a week starting in September. There is no flexibility being given even if you work on a global team and don’t work with anyone at the site you’re being told to report into. The company will lose women and the most talented employees soon due to this ridiculous policy.

Good mission but no prioritizing of developing and keeping talent

Business Outlook

Pros

Great people work here, pretty good work life balance, decent PTO, technologies that benefit patients

Cons

Benefits have been cut, frequent lay offs, forced return to office 4 days a week. Leadership is not listening to what workers need. Raise has been about 2% a year for many years, this is not in line with inflation.
