Pros

Working for a global, and fairly prestigious medical device company. The salary and benefits are not terrible. I don't mind the company itself.

Cons

Dealing with management, their presumptions, stereotypes, judgements, and racism. It seems to me that this particular bd company has promoted the wrong type of people who lack the compassion and professionalism that comes along with having the gracious role of being over people.

Pros

Previous senior management created an environment that retained talent and made you feel like you'd want to stay for a long time. Good health insurance but can be expensive Depending on where you work, some mid-level managers really do care I've learned a lot about process and company politics

Cons

Investing in current employees has decreased greatly Lots of outsourcing / off-shoring Company focus used to be on health care - now it's all about pleasing the stock holders
