Pros

I get to work on some of the most challenging problems in biomedical engineering. These are generational challenges, equivalent in scale to sequencing the human genome.

Cons

Highly regulated industry. Older employees are set in the medical device-centric view; not ready to embrace the changes that the software industry is ushering in.
