Alcon reviews

Decision making is not pushed low enough in the company yet slowing our ability to innovate and react to market conditions.

Bureaucracy makes implementing improvements and driving success near impossible. Severe understaffing forces employees to cover responsibilities for 2 or more jobs (above mentioned bureaucracy constrains the hiring process). Since Novartis takeover in 2011, the pharma mentality has been inappropriately applied to a med device space resulting in restraints in creatively solving problems and overall driving down the success and morale of the business.
