Still challenged in going from good to great

Pros

Very good benefits, feeling of being connected to healthcare industry, interesting projects.

Cons

Senior mgmt continues to struggle with decision making. Everything becomes a priority hence nothing meaningful is completed. Lots of great ideas stay on the white board and don't move forward. Far too many silos. Too many critical customer facing departments go begging for resources while other departments are bloated.

Pros

Lenient work hours for office employees. 3% (at the time) match for 401K, great health insurance, safe environment, training

Cons

Low morale, quality & customer satisfaction > your satisfaction, LEAN initiatives have gone overboard and include auditing office desks, no 'thank yous' or 'congratulations' for any milestones or achievements, no room for growth

Pros

STERIS is a growing company in an emerging field that offers many opportunities for personal development while maintaining the security of a large organization. The FDA regulated environment is a highly marketable skill. The offices are located in potentially overlooked cities, but this yields a greater opportunity to stretch a salary while still enjoying the benefits of establish communities.

Cons

STERIS has yet to evolve into a cohesive company. While it 20 years old, it does not act like an established company in many respects, and lacks infrastructure to support running efficiently. The different locations each have different cultures, and act like the companies they were before STERIS purchased them. Employees will still complain and say the old days were better, or corporate has no idea how to run things, and only care about the stock price. Recent changes in upper management have contributed to a culture where no one is sure what will happen next, and while the changes may be positive and solve some of the above problems, it is difficult in a tough economy to wait and see, and this can cause the best employees to find jobs elsewhere, and the ones with less marketable skills to remain.
