Pros

Good pay and benefits. Professional atmosphere with good work conditions. Have access to gym and a lot of after-work activities. Many of the employees here come from a very athletic or military background, and perform at a high level.

Cons

As other reviewers have mentioned, there is ZERO job security here. Employees are routinely laid off or fired, and it doesn't seem to have any relationship to performance.

Pros

Most employees are highly motivated since interview process uses Gallup profiling to assess ambition. Company makes amazing products. Pay is good for entry-level employees, and benefits are excellent (e.g., 3 weeks vacation in your first year, on-site fitness center). There is opportunity for rapid promotion if you are good at your job. Company has a very youthful culture and there are no divisions between employees and managers - often people sit in same cubicle area and eat lunch with their manager.

Cons

Some people may not like Stryker culture. I like it but most professional employees are under age 35, and look like they came out of a J. Crew or Manolo Blahnik commercial. Also, Stryker is a classic Peter Principle organization. If you want your career to advance, you have to become a manager rather than a specialized employee. Not surprisingly, many managers are nice to their employees but lack people skills. To make it worse, managers may have 15 or more direct reports, and may have employees at multiple locations.
