      Pros

      Dexcom has created excellent technology that provides significant benefits to patients with diabetes, and this is a plus If you are motivated by mission or the potential for impact, The team includes a number of very smart and exceptional people.

      Cons

      Decision making is political. While this is not uncommon, it has been exacerbated by the company's performance in the stock market such that personal interests influence outcomes. The pace that the company can bring innovations to market is limited because its devices are class III medical devices regulated by the FDA.

      Challenging, yet more rewarding than any other job I've had

      Pros

      Dexcom employees genuinely care about our customers. Our mission is to "empower people to take control of diabetes" and that's exactly what we and our product do. It's exciting to build a category and be at the forefront of changing the way people deal with this disease. It's nice to work for a company that leads the industry & has unprecedented growth, even if it means that a lot of our work is an uphill battle. That's the nature of the beast.

      Cons

      Goals are aggressive, timelines are demanding and everyone is expected to work very hard. But the hard work pays off. You just have to be able to keep your head straight and not lose sight of the importance of the work. All great things & rewards come with great challenges. You cannot impact an industry without being flexible & adaptable. If you work to collect a paycheck, this is not the right place for you. You have to be dedicated and invested in the big picture.

      Pros

      This company has great benefits and provide great training when you first get started.

      Cons

      The company does not value their inside representatives and do not pay them what they truly deserve. Most of the work is done by the inside team, but the outside team reaps all the benefits. Upper management are under qualified and will send out excel spreadsheets through out the day. Supervisors and management don't actually lead their teams, but instead have pointless meetings where nothing gets accomplished.
