Pros

Some quality products, some are waning in their innovation as competitors ramp up theirs.

Cons

Once a leader in extremities some of their hallmark products are resting on their laurels while the competition innovates and improve off expiring patents. Management lacks direction and motivation or anything that remotely resembles urgency. Good luck getting a hotline answered by anyone who is remotely informed about your inquiry (including from the OR). Slim resources to contracted hospitals be prepared to be pressured to over promise a client only to be facing the same client when S-N logistics under delivers (even months later). You'll find contract pricing so low you can't make a reasonable living when considering the hours are routinely 60+ hours a week and around the clock.
