Pros

Schein is the market leader and well-respected in the industry. Owns many categories and commands respect from the biggest players. Job prestige is high and culture is extremely traditional. Financially, the company is like a rock and consistently grows stock and market share from year to year. Many "lifers" who have been in the industry forever and love Schein.

Cons

A company run by accountants. Financials always look great, but profit squeezing is paramount and most departments are understaffed, positions are rarely backfilled, responsibilities/expectations are huge and they are miserly with raises. Salaries are barely competitive for mid-management positions and internal systems are outdated; budgets and tools to innovate (or even compete professionally) are next to nil. Upward mobility is limited; I did not personally witness many major title promotions from within--although plenty of people fulfilled their manager/subordinate's responsibilities for months or years after the manager/subordinate left.

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.
