Pros

Henry Schein is the largest company on Long Island that offers a reasonable work-life balance. Your job is pretty secure unless you get on the bad side of an executive.

Cons

There are very limited advancement opportunities with only a handful of "chosen ones" that get promoted. The leaders of the organization have a tendency to maintain status quo when there are issues by telling you what you want to hear, and then taking no action. No matter how stellar your annual review is, you will most likely receive a 2.5% raise. If you are a motivated, intelligent and hard working individual who wants a defined career path, HS is not the company for you. But if you want to do the same thing every day, do not want to be challenged, and become a "lifer," you should apply.

Pros

Henry Schein has a genuinely collaborative culture where teamwork and respect are part of daily work life. Leadership is supportive and encourages open communication, professional development, and continuous learning. There are great opportunities to grow your skill set, especially through cross functional work with teams across pricing, product data, sales, and operations. Work–life balance is solid, the company has remote opportunities and is a respected leader in the healthcare industry. I also appreciate the company’s commitment to community outreach and social responsibility—it reinforces that we’re working for a mission-driven organization.

Cons

Like most large organizations, processes can sometimes feel slow due to the number of teams involved. Change management can take time, and cross-department alignment requires patience. However, leadership has been taking steps to improve workflows and increase efficiency.
