Pros

I produced and packaged medical devices that help save and extend peoples lives. I felt my job done each day was morally and mentally satisfying. I enjoyed the yearly bonuses and the benifit package Medtronic offered. The shifts avalible and vacation time offered were a plus to me and my life needs.My supervisor earned my respect and full support because they spent time on the floor and observed the workers every day. They complemented us and thanked us for all our work.

Cons

Not enough sick time. You build medical devices that go into the human body, if your sick you cannot work. The pay increases were not that great and only came anually. Not enough communication between departments.

Pros

Medtronic has great name recognition and excellent for meeting others in the industry. Very smart, hard working people, especially at corporate level. Multifacted- so many therapies to better serve patients The company pays competitive base salaries compared to its peers. It is one of the best companies to be associated with given strong patient focus, exciting new technologies, and great financial operating performance.

Cons

Over extended - it appears that the company is focusing on so many things that it's lost the core values that ties all its businesses together Also, some of our colleagues are not as motivated in their current roles - either they are underpaid, underappreciated for their efforts, or perhaps the wrong fit, but the business units are empty by 5pm. The company doesn't reward it's hardest working employees, giving no incentive to lead by example.
