Benefits and rank and file people are great. Leadership is good at executive level but VP level is unmonitored and unchecked

Pros

I have been working at Medtronic for many years. When the management team took over from the Medtronic acquisition about 6-7 years ago, I saw a future....Next, Medtronic brings their own people in and it goes to hell, I cannot imagine a worse place to work.

Cons

Terrible management, terrible management, terrible management...Not nice people and dumb to top it off. They are really killing the place.
