ZimVie reviews

Complex Corporate Structure: As a multinational, the company’s structure can be quite complex.

The seems to be a cloud of secrecy around the company, especially in Florida, since the spin off from Zimmer Biomet. No one really knows what the future holds. It's a ship that seems lost at sea but who ever is at the steering wheel knows where it's going. Also, there is a sister facility in Spain that seems to have a significant difference in operating costs which has caused a competition to retain products. There has been a large headcount reduction in 2024 across all roles, engineering, etc. Also, with the continuous changes it can be hard to make improvements. The QMS is a spider web of documents which means even the smallest change is significant endeavor to implement. The non-machining workforce can be around 50 percent temporary employees who typically have no manufacturing background, can't read blueprints etc. This can be a headache on the quality side but there has been improvements to fix on board training but they typically let the people go by the time they become reliable. It's a cat and mouse game with finance.
