Pros

-Verathon has a fantastic financial and competitive outlook, with planned expansion of products and markets along with plans for efficiency and more sophisticated tracking and analysis. -Great culture, focused on growth and improvement, tempered by realistic expectations. The phrase I hear regularly is "a year's worth of progress." Management knows that change comes one step at a time. They seem invested in the long-term plan. -High pace of change means a lot of opportunity to step up and drive that change. -The Bothell location is a fantastic spot--much easier commute than Seattle or Bellevue, and the renovated headquarters is really nice.

Cons

-The company has a good amount of history, with some decisions that continue to be managed as part of the go-forward plans. -The pace of change can seem a bit daunting at times.

Pros

Wish I could enumerate some examples!

Cons

When we tell people to do their jobs, we get workers, when we trust people to get the job done, we get leaders! So, if you want to be a worker, being disgraced and underappreciated, Verathon is the place to be. You don’t get any room for personal talent development and there is a huge lack of trust – in fact there is no trust at all. Micromanagement is their ultimate controlling management style. It’s demoralizing and counter-intuitive and the desire for control to make sure everything goes to plan only creates more problems within the company. You’ll never end up as a leader in this company, because there is one, so called CEO , who rules and persecutes his workers and assesses performances based on hearings. Furthermore, Management feels that they’re able to breakdown law in Europe and is not capable (or willing) to get an empathetic understanding of the European business. If one executes their job as commanded by the CEO, you might be safe. HR in Amsterdam and the US is the biggest joke ever and very untrustworthy. I’m trying to think about anything nice to say. Oh, yeah about the nice people, but they’ll all have been fired (or left the company) because the CEO didn’t like them, despite the fact they delivered great results (met the targets) and have been overachieving. The office building in Amsterdam is an atrocious catastrophe, in the winter people need to keep themselves warm by wearing extra blankets and mobile gas heaters whilst management is sitting in their offices with controlled heater/air-conditioned facilities.

Pros

Great benefits & bonus, customer focused

Cons

Started from a small UK based company that then materialised into a corporate US organisation that didn't value UK customer's opinions
