I recommend Altus Spine to anyone who takes pride in their work, doubly so for those with an entrepreneurial spirit. There aren't many places where you can find a small business setting within a world-class facility. The company has a very strong foundation. The owner is goal and business-oriented which translates into a working environment that is very open to improvement opportunities. Yes, it is often fast-paced and requires flexibility, but the individual is still provided the freedom to explore alternative paths to success and help shape and improve processes. I have worked for Fortune 500 & 1000 companies for the majority of my career; although I've been blessed to work with great organizations, I have often felt like a cog in the wheel. Not at Altus Spine. Every single team member is a linchpin to daily operations and you're never more than one good idea away from helping to shape decisions and processes. Altus Spine's leadership believes in mutual growth. If you can demonstrate that your competency and achievements contribute to the company's improvement, then you'll be rewarded. The company is actively pursuing entrance into the global market. If that sounds exciting to you then there is no better time to join the team.
Cons
No significant cons that aren't shared by the industry. Altus Spine engineers and sells Medical Devices which means that the facility and work areas (including desks) must remain clean and highly organized. This is a big "pro" for anyone familiar with the industry (the facility is always audit and tour-ready), but those new to pharma or medical devices may suffer initially from culture shock. Cleanliness and organization are necessary to realize Altus Spine's commitment to quality.

Compensation potential is good. The work environment is clean.
Cons
There is a very toxic work environment here. The owner of the company seems to be purely interested in finances. The building is sad and all the workers are complaining. They do have some great products and may be a good place to start as an engineer. In general I would never recommend someone to work here .

Thank you very much for your feedback. As you would expect, we are disappointed that the experience was not positive. It is true that our compensation plans are as competitive as any other manufacturing firm in the region and as a result does not support the contention that the CEO is only concerned with finances. The truth be told, the CEO’s focus is on serving the customer, maintaining a safe and clean facility, and recruiting and retaining the very best workforce. We also agree that for first time and experienced engineers, Altus Spine is an ideal company for both growth and stability. And yes, a clean work environment and outstanding products add up to a great place to work and not a toxic one.
