Pros

Work environment is nice, with a cafeteria and gym. Decent benefits. You’ll probably get an nice laptop to help you work from home. I liked/disliked that my team would go out for dinner and drinks throughout the month. Do you ever get the feeling that you just want some time away from your coworkers, dinner can get repetitive.

Cons

There is an intense cult feeling at this place. A lot of awful employees work here, but do very well navigating the corporate culture, therefore they get promoted. Being a senior financial analyst seems like a temporary holding place for employees. No one really wants to be a Sr Financial Analyst, it’s just a stepping stone to get into a position elsewhere in the company. Your manager may know less about your job than you, so there’s not much support. Training is non existent, so learn how to kiss up to your overwhelmed coworkers or be good at faking it until you make it.

Pros

The individual contributors you work with are fantastic people and the products we work on are really interesting and have significant impacts on patient care.

Cons

Sports Medicine has unfortunately changed from a dynamic and collaborative group to one being led by toxic leadership. Rather than working together and trusting team members, they now have an in group and out group. If you’re in the in group, you can say anything you want without being questioned and be automatically trusted even when your track record says otherwise. If you’re in the out group and your message doesn’t align with what the leadership wants to hear, then you are automatically wrong and not to be trusted.
