Pros

Good benefits, have some really talented sales reps that aren't paid attention to. .

Cons

Product portfolio that is way behind industry standard. When your best product in the bag is a meniscal repair device, that says a lot. Takes forever to launch products. Way too bureaucratic and risk aversed. Also, I thought that employees were valued here but that was clearly not the case. The pay and comp plan pays very low at plan comparitive to others in the industry. The non compete agreement pretty much keeps you out of a job even if you are laid off. I was told by a lawyer it is the broadest most grossly encompassing non compete he had ever seen. So thank you Smith and Nephew for laying me off and allowing me zero opportunity to find any kind of similar job locally.
