Pros

Products help enrich the lives of people, or directly help save life and limb. Engineers are passionate about their work. Self care is encouraged, and a workplace of compassionate understanding exists at some levels. On-site cafeteria is tasty and cheap.

Cons

In general, despite acquisition nearly 6 years ago by Philips (prior company was Spectranetics), the Colorado Springs site still operates like a small business trying to be acquired. This leads the Site level management (Colorado Springs, CO) to be disconnected from the upper management in nearly all respects. If patient and user safety is top of mind for the corporate management, site management focuses of short-term profit. This is VERY disconcerting for engineers, as your job is jeopardized regardless of action. Design-make-test cycles are difficult due to the sheer complexity of documentation and associated processes.

Pros

The pay is decent and that is it.

Cons

Do not plan to EVER use your time off, they have favoritism. They have unrealistic expectations that are ever changing and they don’t say anything to you until they are writing you up. The managers are never available to speak with you unless it is your weekly 1:1 which is either filled with lies or your but is being chewed out. ALL of the managers are constantly in meetings. The customers are allowed to verbally abuse you, call you every name imaginable.
