Pros

Products / Technology in many medical specialties Innovation Global reach & distribution Great brand recognition Patient focused organization Truly a company that can make a difference and positive impact Opportunity for advancement

Cons

Lack of people with leadership abilities or longterm vision Management kicks the can down the road Goals or vision rarely shared by upper management Leadership only communicates amongst top executives without sharing goals with the worker bees Promotions here only mean a new title and more responsibility, but often no pay increase Advancement within the headquarters is based upon who you know, not skillset, ambition or abilities Significant politics inside the HQ

Pros

401K matching, PTO/sick time, Good health insurance, cheap cafeteria, gym, clean work environment. Overtime is usually offered if not mandatory. Puts food on the table I guess. Could be worse.

Cons

Management can be petty. Very dependent on which department you work in. A lot of high school like behavior with cliques and gossip.
