Pros

I suppose the product in neuromodulation for drug resistant epilepsy patients is now 26 years old and so is quite established

Cons

….physicians who are key strategic epilepsy leaders - were deeply irked that sales people were walking around their main academic and community hospitals in scrubs actively pretending to be doctors and nurses - telling patients what they should do- on and certainly off label. So much pressure to do the wrong thing in marketing materials- extremely blatantly so- and if you don’t comply- they go after you. If this company gets a backbone it would be to begin to understand 1-2 simple laws they need to function by just like almost everywhere else.

Pros

I think leadership puts a lot of thought into strategy, including the new human imperatives. They're having the right discussions and gathering employee insights. The culture is good and getting better from where i sit (but there is a lot of variability on experiences based on location culture) and I haven't met very many 'weak links' - people are smart and they work hard. Most people really, sincerely care about helping patients.

Cons

The size of the company means career pathing will just be limited. You really have to take control of your path and forge it- you can't wait for the organization to bubble up opportunities for you in a way that may be possible at larger organizations.
