not as great as they think they are

Business Outlook

Pros

Above average basic salary and bonus, great benefits package, supportive managers and head office teams. Plenty of scope for career progression if you are able to be flexible in location. High flyers are "fast tracked"

Cons

Huge international company with some outdated systems. Online career management systems not easy to use at times. If you are not self motivated regarding career development you could miss out on opportunities.

Pros

Good over all work environment. Most are ultimately looking to help people with their medical products/

Cons

Many above do not think the people below (on the job ladder) are capable of doing as good of a job. Without a MS in engineering it is difficult to have people except your ideas.
