Medtronic IT has become a toxic place to work

It director

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Strong company mission that provides purpose for the work and working with many people who share those values.

Cons

The recent changes of the IT executive team has created a deeply toxic culture, marked by authoritarian leadership tactics, including bullying and disregard for both employees and partners. Ongoing reductions in force activities have compounded the issue—placing unrealistic demands on remaining staff to absorb increased workloads without recognition or compensation. This unsustainable dynamic has significantly eroded employee morale and work-life balance across the organization.

Poor Management

Business Outlook

Pros

Following the recent layoffs in 2025 at Diabetes, there isn't much to recommend this place. I am looking for a new job, despite currently having one.

Cons

This place does not invest in employees. Managers often hire friends or prioritize hiring individuals with visas, allowing them to be overworked and underpaid. The last layoff resulted in the dismissal of many long-term employees, so a significant amount of work that no one knows how to do has been redistributed. The ratings this year were calibrated with input from directors and SVPs, not from managers. The only ratings that were four or above were those of friends of the directors or people they were concerned would leave after the recent round of layoffs. The nepotism in this place is absurd.
