Pros

Helping patients and cutting edge experiences.

Cons

You will not last if you’re not a seasoned brown noser to the executive commercial leadership and some of the talent ops heads. Sr Leaders and Talent Ops will tell you the foundation of the culture is honest feedback, but doing so will make you instantaneously regret ANY well intentioned feedback that is not favorable to them. Plan on feeling like a complete fool for trusting the “culture” as well. What’s worse is the “leaders” I’m referencing to are so pathetically unqualified for their jobs that they have outright fired highly qualified outstanding contributors, due to leadership’s own ignorance. I honestly just shake my head in complete disbelief at times.

Not what they say it is

Pros

perks, like food and swag

Cons

They say they have a transparent culture but don't be fooled. There is a shadow culture of politics, anonymous sniping and things you are "supposed to know because they are assuming everyone is an adult" and it's all fostered by this weird, homegrown system that tracks everyone you interact with and asks you to complete meaningless surveys and give feedback on peers constantly. It's unclear what is done with all this feedback except to allow grudge matches to flourish and no real human interaction on performance. There are no titles so it's easy to pass people around from team to team when people don't perform. As time goes on things will keep stagnating here and really good people are already jumping ship.
