Pros

Very strong company reputation in medical device field Friendly coworkers and lots of opportunity for fun corporate events

Cons

Very low balled salaries for internal hires. External hires are treated better in that regard The company reputation impacts associate ability to leverage skills/knowledge to negotiate pay. Often excuse is "you are not ready" (age based) with no clear direction of how to "be ready". Another excuse is "budget"

Pros

Chaotic environment forces quick growth. Treat it as a resume builder and then find a more stable opportunity.

Cons

Constant backorders due to poor management. Likely to have more changes in leadership team(s) than years spent at the company. Unethical leaders that act like high school bullies and cling to titles rather than create a supportive environment. Employees constantly left in the dark due to lack of meetings or failure of leaders to even learn what their teams are working on. Constant reorgs with no consideration of impact to teams or business continuity. Frequent cases of falsified performance reviews to push out whistleblowers with complicit HR teams. Quality policy is a joke. RTO push to high COL areas with no relocation support, onboarding, seat and laptop assignment - only to lay off entire teams within a year just to repost the same position and ask laid off employees to re-apply.
