Pros

As a stepping stone to open doors for other opportunities with other companies within the medical device industry. The company has a "young" energy to it, and a top notch office, with plenty of brainstorming space.

Cons

Confused quality, regulatory, operations system and management. Lack of decision making by upper management. Poor focus on driving projects to launch. As a result of several product development departures over the last two years, the experience level of the engineers working on products has greatly declined.

Pros

There are many non-traditional benefits that help with work life balance. The company’s brand and global reach are undeniable and reinforce the company’s compelling Mission.

Cons

People are expected to deliver above-average results with below-average processes. The stock’s performance has earned this pressure, but there is no obvious, quick path to improvement. Your experience in that corporate environment will depend on your supervisor either being a leader or a manager.
