Pros

You are working to help people with Diabetes and that is a meaningful occupation. The location is perfect - Southern California has much better weather than MN.

Cons

Still a disconnect in professionalism of Medtronic Corporate (in MN) and Medtronic Minimed in Northridge, culture has been slow to change.

Pros

Generous, old-school benefits. Almost twice the PTO as other places I've worked, excellent healthcare, 401K matching, etc. Many high-quality colleagues and a generally mellow, polite business culture.

Cons

Multiple competing bureaucracies, internal consultancies, a computer-illiterate 'stakeholder' class with permission to disrupt anything, and perverse incentives driving waste.
