Pros

None since company merged and the headquarters (and senior management positions) moved out of the USA.

Cons

Neuromodulation business was profitable when company could focus on only VNS therapy (Cyberonics). Once company merged, seems like most all profits from VNS were used to fund the Cardiac surgery (which were costly franchises with little to no profit margins). Management focus now turned to keeping the European franchises afloat, resulting in big challenges to VNS product lines. Also attempts to standardize procedures (make them global) have also created problems since the requirements for operating in different global regions are very different. Functional staff at each of the locations are required to deal with the resulting (non-optimal) procedures. Not a good situation.

Pros

Pretty new here, so I will rate it off what I have seen, no HR does not tell you to leave reviews. When I first interviewed it was about 4 people in a span of 2-3 hours one on one. Which I liked makes you less nervous doing one on one then panel. Accepting the job I had the same concerns reading these reviews. I can say I haven’t experience anything but a good work place some of the kindest people who work here, very friendly staff and willing to help. So please when applying don’t take some of these negatives reviews to heart I did at first and I saw nothing of the sort here. Growing company with bright future that you want to be apart of. Really good pay and work life balance is perfect so far.

Cons

I haven not had any comments yet.
