Pros

I really enjoy working with my Team as they're very supportive and are always willing to assist. The overall collaborative culture is something that I really enjoy and find refreshing in a company as big as ours

Cons

Since I am on a smaller team, the internal mobility options are not available to me at this time. I'm hopeful though that with more growth will come more opportunities for me and my teammates.

Toxic Culture

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

• Products have meaningful impact on patients’ lives. • Some talented individuals at the mid-level and below who truly care about their work.

Cons

• Toxic culture: Leadership often fosters favoritism and politics over merit. Employees who raise concerns are ignored or sidelined. • HR does not advocate for employees: HR is viewed as protecting leadership rather than addressing real workplace issues. Complaints about mistreatment or inequities go unresolved. • Pay disparities: Compensation is inconsistent and inequitable across roles, even when employees perform the same job. Raises and promotions are not transparent. • Workload expectations are unreasonable
