Good opportunities if you have some patience and work hard at networking internally.

Reliability engineer

Business Outlook

Pros

Excellent benefits, competitive salary and reasonable vacation time. It feels good to be part of company that makes truly amazing products that can improve lives. There is an active technical community within the company and they've done some cool work internally with social networking to leverage employees' expertise across business units.

Cons

Lots of layoffs in recent years and and maybe more to come with worries about markets slowing down. Moving to different jobs internally is not easy. In my experience,some hiring managers are reluctant to hire people who are looking to grow new skills. But there are good opportunities if you take time to build a network and let people know what your goals are.

Fulfilling for the soul, tough for the career

Senior clinical specialist

Business Outlook

Pros

The Mission: helping those in need is extremely satisfying. Working in the field exposes you to a variety of uncomfortable situations which all help you grow and develop in sales and customer interaction.

Cons

Very bureaucratic in the larger, older divisions. Hard to break out of your job description and gain recognition when there are older, tenured personnel who are content and afraid of losing their positions.
