      Business Outlook

      Pros

      *Great culture, on paper *Medtronic Mission and patient focus can be inspirational *Opportunity to learn a lot, especially for people early in their career *Good benefits, vacation policy, family leave policies *Good focus on diversity without being quota system

      Cons

      *Bureaucracy can be high at certain sites, depending on involvement of corporate initiatives and/or quality system differentiation *Titles abound for people higher up but lower levels have a rough time for promotions. Career ladder discussed but it's a crap shoot if your local manager or site care to really listen *Raises

      Lean company, difficult to internally transfer

      Project analyst
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      1. Kind and caring people, my manager the best one I've had in my career. 2. Change management orientation, if you have an idea and the resources, people are willing to try new ideas. 3. Great benefits and compensation offered even without negotiation at the time of job offer.

      Cons

      1. Human resources are very difficult to come by, the company runs extra lean on staff, so as a project manager it was difficult to get the resources needed to implement any recommended changes and/or projects. 2. Worst internal transfer policy I have ever seen. You have to stay in your current position for a year (2 years for Sales), you must notify your manager when you start applying internally (and they receive email notice as well from HR) and there is a cap on how much you can increase salary in moving internally (but that cap is only mentioned, not disclosed). 3. Company culture of procrastination rather than planning. Regularly pushing a deadline ambiguously somewhere down the road rather than buckling down to get things done.
