Pros

People work hard because they are afraid of management. The original founders are still there and are very approachable and open to discussion. There is a recreational green space across the street. They try to keep up with Silicon Valley by providing free coffee and tea.

Cons

On my first day, I was told, "drink the Kool-Aid and you'll be fine." People are unhappy but afraid to leave. Extremely toxic environment where brown-nosing is the fast track to promotion. Job transitions between Danaher operating companies is encouraged and supported on the surface, but in reality, it is impossible to apply independent from management.
