Good Place to work, good mission, good benefits

Business Outlook

Pros

Medical Device oriented. Good team work and great products. People are more focused on the product and market rather than just internal politics. Specific products range from life sustaining devices to devices that help restore normalcy to life.

Cons

Big company, hence lot of bureaucracy and heavy upper management. Upper management transparency is limited in some of the divisions. Some divisions don't seem to be thinking long term growth and not investing in advanced technologies. Some of the divisions in the company seem to be going towards less innovation centric and more acquisition centric.

Business Outlook

Pros

Great opportunities for people in their 20s and 30s. Plenty of extra committees and workshops to learn the different business.

Cons

Over 40s are stagnated. Very few opportunities for over 40s not to move up the ladder. They have bully managers and HR doesn't even know what that means.

Business Outlook

Pros

Mission, saving people, flexible hours if salaried, promote and pay for training.

Cons

Wish pay was more. Wish managers used the Recognize program how its supposed to be used. Just killed a project and got nothing for it, while others show up to work and get points for combing their hair.
